I am looking for a PD getty or login replacement. I am not sure exactly which one I need as I am running Xenix. What I want to do is to be able to generate a custom login prompt other than the standard "Login:" user friendliness. Can anyone point me to the source to one of these or if the source is not TOO large could you mail it to me? Please email responses. Thanks. +-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+ | Michael R.

The file /etc/gettydefs can be edited to provide whatever sort of login prompt you want. You may put bells and ansi sequences to color the screen etc. in the file. Merely edit the end of the terminal type in question's entry. -- Michael Lodman (619) 485-3335 Advanced Development NCR Corporation E&M San Diego mike.lodman@ivory.SanDiego.NCR.COM {sdcsvax,cbatt,dcdwest,nosc.ARPA,ihnp4}!ncr-sd!ivory!mike When you die, if you've been very, very good, you'll go to ...

Thus far the replies I have gotten detail mostly "gettydefs" type solutions. I only wish I had such an option. My xenix doesn't support such nice features. I really need a getty replacement for xenix. Does anyone have such an animal. Michael R.
