simple, use mgetty for modem lines and [a]getty for virtual consoles. edit /etc/inittab and change the modem line gettys to mgetty. the latest mgetty package adds some (commented out) sample lines to inittab. also, try 'man mgetty'. craig -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
