- The file /var/run/wtmp is used to track when user's have logged into
- and logged out of the system.
+ getty lets you log in on a tty. It is normally invoked by init.
+
+ Note that you can save a few bytes by disabling it and
+ using login applet directly.
+ If you need to reset tty attributes before calling login,
+ this script approximates getty:
+
+ exec </dev/$1 >/dev/$1 2>&1 || exit 1
+ reset
+ stty sane; stty ispeed 38400; stty ospeed 38400
+ printf "%s login: " "`hostname`"
+ read -r login
+ exec /bin/login "$login"
