- Fix for possible unset uid/gid in toproto - Fix for default mtree style - Update libelf - Importing libexecinfo - Resynchronize GCC, mpc, gmp, mpfr - build.sh: Replace params with show-params. This has been done as the make target has been renamed in the same way, while a new target named params has been added. This new target generates a file containing all the parameters, instead of printing it on the console. - Update test48 with new etc/services (Fix by Ben Gras <ben@minix3.org) get getservbyport() out of the inner loop Change-Id: Ie6ad5226fa2621ff9f0dee8782ea48f9443d2091

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
program
|
|
is called by
|
|
.Xr init 8
|
|
to open and initialize the tty line, read a login name, and invoke
|
|
.Xr login 1 .
|
|
The devices on which to run
|
|
.Nm
|
|
are normally determined by
|
|
.Xr ttys 5 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
program can also recognize a Point to Point Protocol
|
|
.Pq Tn PPP
|
|
negotiation, and, if the
|
|
.Sy pp
|
|
attribute in
|
|
.Xr gettytab 5
|
|
is set, invoke the program given by that string, e.g.,
|
|
.Xr pppd 8 ,
|
|
instead of
|
|
.Xr login 1 .
|
|
This makes it possible to use a single serial port for either a
|
|
.Qq shell
|
|
account with command line interface, or a
|
|
.Tn PPP
|
|
network link.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The argument
|
|
.Ar tty
|
|
is the special device file in
|
|
.Pa /dev
|
|
to open for the terminal
|
|
.Po
|
|
for example,
|
|
.Qq ttyh0
|
|
.Pc .
|
|
If there is no argument or the argument is
|
|
.Ql Fl ,
|
|
the tty line is assumed to be open as file descriptor 0.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar type
|
|
argument can be used to make
|
|
.Nm
|
|
treat the terminal line specially.
|
|
This argument is used as an index into the
|
|
.Xr gettytab 5
|
|
database, to determine the characteristics of the line.
|
|
If there is no argument, or there is no such table, the
|
|
.Em default
|
|
table is used.
|
|
If there is no
|
|
.Pa /etc/gettytab
|
|
a set of system defaults is used.
|
|
If indicated by the table located,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
will clear the terminal screen,
|
|
print a banner heading,
|
|
and prompt for a login name.
|
|
Usually either the banner or the login prompt will include
|
|
the system hostname.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Nm
|
|
uses the
|
|
.Xr ttyaction 3
|
|
facility with an action of
|
|
.Qq getty
|
|
and user
|
|
.Qq root
|
|
to execute site-specific commands when it starts.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Most of the default actions of
|
|
.Nm
|
|
can be circumvented, or modified, by a suitable
|
|
.Xr gettytab 5
|
|
table.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
program can be set to timeout after some interval,
|
|
which will cause dial up lines to hang up
|
|
if the login name is not entered reasonably quickly.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm uugetty
|
|
program is the same, except that it uses
|
|
.Xr pidlock 3
|
|
to respect the locks in
|
|
.Pa /var/spool/lock
|
|
of processes that dial out on that tty.
|

.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
.Bl -diag

|
.It "ttyxx: No such device or address."
|
|
.It "ttyxx: No such file or address."
|
|
A terminal which is turned on in the
|
|
.Xr ttys 5
|
|
file cannot be opened, likely because the requisite
|
|
lines are either not configured into the system, the associated device
|
|
was not attached during boot-time system configuration,
|
|
or the special file in
|
|
.Pa /dev
|
|
does not exist.
