This is my problem, every time I start NetBSD, I want to send an
initialization string to the modem (turn auto answer on) and do it at
38400. I could write a program in C to do just this, however, I would
have to have an entry like this in my /etc/ttys...
tty01 "" vt100 off softcar
The problem is, I want to start /usr/libexec/getty after I initialize the
modem, which is equivalent to...
tty01 "/usr/libexec/getty std.38400" vt100 on secure
in the /etc/ttys.
Obviously I can't have both in /etc/ttys, how would I handle the hand off
to initd?
Oh yes, I would like to do this in rc or rc.local.
Any Ideas.
