Subject: [TUHS] 4.3BSD help: getty ignoring modem status
Date: Sun, 19 Mar 2017 17:47:03 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <24849.1489970823@cesium.clock.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <F79EB276-241E-46F5-8C50-10F0A4321301@planet.nl>

See gettytab(5) followed by ttys(5).

/etc/gettytab has entries for various types of terminals in a very generic
sense (not in the termcap(5) sense), and /etc/ttys is where the arguments to
getty(8) are placed as part of the configuration of init(8) a.k.a. /etc/init
or in modern BSD /sbin/init
