Hallo erstmal! Hi! Hamish Moffatt ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): > Is agetty used much for serial? I always use mgetty here, although usually > because I want something more exotic like AutoPPP or fax reception.
I use it for a null-modem link to another machine. In combination with putting lilo on the same link (and maybe with 2.1.x's serial console feature) this is a REALLY nice way to save a monitor, graphics card, keyboard and to keep a way to connect to the box if the network is hosed. I don't like the idea to switch to a getty without serial support. Maybe we'll once enhance our setup to run over a serial line (as it's possible with FreeBSD).
