+	For reasons that remain very unclear, Solaris passes the login name
+from getty/telnetd to login by stuffing it in the terminal input buffer
+instead of passing it on the command line like every other *IX. This is just
+plain broken. Solaris has other problems with its telnetd and getty; you may
+want to consider getting the telnet(d) sources (ftp.cray.com:/src/telnet)
+and reasonable getty sources (try sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/Serial, at
+least one of agetty, mingetty, and getty_ps should work) and replacing the
+Solaris versions with these. OPIE should work *much* more happily with these
+programs than the ones that come with Solaris. However, there could be negative
+side effects -- this is not a procedure recommended for the faint of heart. An
+even more drastic solution more likely to make OPIE happy is to install Linux
+or NetBSD on your box ;)
+
+	OPIE is a lot more fussy than it used to be about lock files and where
+it puts them. The lock file directory must be a directory used only for OPIE
+lock files. It must be a directory, owned by the superuser, and must be mode

+	utmp and wtmp handling in OPIE has been a very, very sore subject.
+Every vendor does things differently, and, of course, most of them swear they
+are complying to some or other "standard." My (cmetz) conclusion is that the
+only thing that is standard about utmp and wtmp handling is that it will be
+nonstandard on any given system. I've tried a lot of things and I've wasted
+*a lot* of time on trying to make utmp and wtmp handling work for everybody;
+my conclusion is that it will never happen. I personally am willing to stand
+behind the code for utmp/wtmp handling on reasonable Linux and 4.4BSD-Lite
+systems. If it breaks, tell me and I will fix it. While I am still interested
+in hearing about fixes for other OSs, I'm not likely to go out of my way to fix
+utmp/wtmp handling on them. If you want it fixed, the best way to do it is to
+fix it yourself and give me a patch. As long as the patch is reasonable, I'll
+include it in the next release. If you can't wait, use the --disable-utmp
+option.
