# login.config # # This is a sample "login dispatcher" configuration file for mgetty # # Format: # username userid utmp_entry login_program [arguments] # # Meaning: # for a "username" entered at mgettys login: prompt, call # "login_program" with [arguments], with the uid set to "userid", # and a USER_PROCESS utmp entry with ut_user = "utmp_entry" # # username may be prefixed / suffixed by "*" (wildcard) # # userid is a valid user name from /etc/passwd, or "-" to not set # a login user id and keep the uid/euid root (needed for /bin/login) # # utmp_entry is what will appear in the "who" listing. Use "-" to not # set an utmp entry (a must for /bin/login), use "@" to set it to the # username entered. Maximum length is 8 characters. # # login_program is the program that will be exec()ed, with the arguments # passed in [arguments]. A "@" in the arguments will be replaced with the # username entered. Warning: if no "@" is given, the login_program has # no way to know what user name the user entered. # # # SAMPLES: # Use this one with my Taylor-UUCP and Taylor-UUCP passwd files. # (Big advantage: tuucp can use the same passwd file for serial dial-in # and tcp dial-in [uucico running as in.uucpd]).
