[comp.unix.questions] reserve tty to specific login

tom@taux01.UUCP (Tom Gorodecki) (07/11/89)

Hello .
How can i reserve a tty so only a specific user can login to this 
tty? 
My machine is  Sequent running  DYNIX 3.0.14 ?
I thought about a private version of getty . Is there a 
other way?

Thanks 
tom.

Remember that your shell can be any program. Write one that checks
whether the user is authorized. If not, print a nastygram and exit.
If so, exec the proper shell.

Actually, from the system's point of view, the other user really did
login, but only for a very short while.
