ok, it had to do with my default shell and its config files.

our (my university's) password pusher pushes /bin/csh as everyones
default shell (uggh).

so on box A i have:

$ grep mzagrabe /etc/passwd
mzagrabe:x:20484:101:Matthew P Zagrabelny:/home/mzagrabe:/bin/csh

$ cat ~/.cshrc
setenv SHELL /bin/bash
exec /bin/bash

if i clean out my .cshrc file, everything works fine.
