Имя (Name)

agetty - alternative Linux getty


Синопсис (Synopsis)

agetty [options] port [baud_rate...] [term]


Описание (Description)

agetty opens a tty port, prompts for a login name and invokes the /bin/login command. It is normally invoked by init(8).

agetty has several non-standard features that are useful for hardwired and for dial-in lines:

• Adapts the tty settings to parity bits and to erase, kill, end-of-line and uppercase characters when it reads a login name. The program can handle 7-bit characters with even, odd, none or space parity, and 8-bit characters with no parity. The following special characters are recognized: Control-U (kill); DEL and backspace (erase); carriage return and line feed (end of line). See also the --erase-chars and --kill-chars options.

• Optionally deduces the baud rate from the CONNECT messages produced by Hayes(tm)-compatible modems.

• Optionally does not hang up when it is given an already opened line (useful for call-back applications).

• Optionally does not display the contents of the /etc/issue file.

• Optionally displays an alternative issue files or directories instead of /etc/issue or /etc/issue.d.

• Optionally does not ask for a login name.

• Optionally invokes a non-standard login program instead of /bin/login.

• Optionally turns on hardware flow control.

• Optionally forces the line to be local with no need for carrier detect.

This program does not use the /etc/gettydefs (System V) or /etc/gettytab (SunOS 4) files.
