I am running SCO Xenix 386 on Tandy 4000 and 4000lx boxes. I am setting up a special access system and want to bypass login; in other words, when activity is detected on a serial line, I want to spoof the login procedure, log into a specific account, and start running my program. Please tell me if there is an easy way to do this. Once my user gets to a shell, it's easy for me to set up his profile so he starts running my program. In fact, I can probably have my program as the shell. The tricky part (to my unenlightened eyes) is getting him to that point without him having to see the login: and password: prompts. If I had the source code to Xenix's login, this would be trivial as I could just cut out the getting of the login name and password and simply assign them to my defaults. So, any suggestions? +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Robert J Woodhead !uunet!cornell!biar!trebor CompuServe 72447,37 | | Biar Games, Inc., 10 Spruce Lane, Ithaca NY 14850 607-257-1708,3864(fax) | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Games written, Viruses killed "I'm the head honcho of this here spread; | | While U Wait.
