Package: mingetty
Version: 0.9.4-7
Severity: normal
Hi... Though documented in the man page the --long-hostname option does not
appear to work. Example: these lines in my /etc/inittab file produce the
same login prompt on the virtual consoles:
1:S12345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty1
2:S12345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty --long-hostname tty2
Output on tty1 and tty2 is (indented for clarity):
Debian GNU/Linux 2.2 etain tty1
etain login:
Shouldn't tty2 show:
Debian GNU/Linux 2.2 etain tty1
etain.bhive.dhs.org login:
Thanks for looking into it. Let me know if I can be more help.
