Hello, 

I'm trying to turn an old unused pc into a serial terminal using NetBSD.
I can perfectly logon to the terminal server at the other end of the
line using "cu -l /dev/tty00" (in fact I'm typing this mail through the
serial line), but now I want this machine to do nothing else, to just
start cu on the console at boot (so the users won't notice the
difference with the other dumb terminals).  

So I replaced a /usr/libexec/getty line in /etc/ttys with a /usr/bin/cu
one and HUPed init, but then it gave some error about getty repeating
too quickly, sleeping...  What should I do about this?  Isn't it
possible to run arbitrary programs from /etc/ttys?
