SCO console login auto fills *

OS: SCO Openr Server 6.0 MP4
HW: Dell R710 Server

When I try to login to the console, the login prompt keeps filling with *

even when I presss enter after the password prompt the login starts filling automatically with the multiple asterisks. This is happening on the console only and if I keep trying the system freezes to a halt, if I dont try to login from console, the users can login from their telnet sessions.

Please guide what to look for

Thanks

it seems that there are some processes spawning too many times.

The login on the console keeps on cycling through all the screens available on the console. (text screens)

Any log files i can check to see what is going on.?

very strange

We had the evaluation license intiall, today I put in the actual license and the problem seems to be resolved

One more step i need to add is that to remove the evaluation license and then add the base system license
