| Summary : The getty and uugetty programs.
|
Description :
The getty_ps package contains the getty and uugetty programs, basic
programs for accomplishing the login process on a Red Hat Linux
system. Getty and uugetty are used to accept logins on the console or
a terminal. Getty is invoked by the init process to open tty lines
and set their modes, to print the login prompt and get the user\'s
name, and to initiate a login process for the user. Uugetty works
just like getty, except that uugetty creates and uses lock files to
prevent two or more processes from conflicting in their use of a tty
line. Getty and uugetty can also answer a modem for dialup
connections, but mgetty is recommended for that purpose.
