I'm not really clear on what you want to do.  It sounds like
users telnet to a server, get environment variables set in
their current (only) shell, then exec a new shell to run the
app.  Is the app telnet based?  When you mention executing a
script as they exit, do you mean from the app or from the
original shell?
