Add an 'al' (autologin username) capability to getty/gettytab. This is a
damn useful thing for using with serial consoles in clusters etc or secure console locations. Using a custom gettytab entry for console with an entry like 'al=root' means that there is *always* a root login ready on the console. This should replace hacks like those which go with conserver etc. (This is a loaded gun, watch out for those feet!) Submitted by: "Andrew J. Korty" <ajk@purdue.edu>
