<H2>SYNOPSIS</H2><PRE>

<STRONG>/etc/ttytab</STRONG>

<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
|
|
The <STRONG>ttytab</STRONG> file lists all the terminal devices that one can login on. It
|
|
is a simple text file that contains lines of the form:
|
|
|
|
<EM>name</EM> <EM>type</EM> "<EM>getty</EM>" "<EM>init</EM>"
|
|
|
|
The <EM>name</EM> and <EM>type</EM> fields are simple words, <EM>name</EM> is the name of the
|
|
terminal device with <STRONG>/dev</STRONG> stripped off, and <EM>type</EM> tells the type of
|
|
terminal to initialize the <STRONG>TERM</STRONG> environment variable.
|
|
|
|
The <EM>getty</EM> and <EM>init</EM> fields may name commands that are run to allow one to
|
|
login on the line, or to initialize the line. Both these fields may be
|
|
more than one word if the whole field is enclosed in double quotes.
|
|
<EM>Getty</EM> is usually simply the word <STRONG>getty</STRONG>, the command that prints a system
|
|
identification banner and allows on to type a name to log in. <EM>Init</EM> is
|
|
usually an <STRONG>stty</STRONG> command to set the baud rate and parity of a serial line.
|
|
|
|
The <EM>init</EM> field may be omitted to indicate that no initialization is
|
|
necessary, and the <EM>getty</EM> field may be left out to not start a login
|
|
process. Terminals should not be left out, because their place in the
|
|
<STRONG>ttytab</STRONG> file determines their slot number as returned by <STRONG><A HREF="../man3/ttyslot.3.html">ttyslot(3)</A></STRONG>.

Comments (introduced by #) and empty lines are ignored.

<H2>EXAMPLE</H2><PRE>

|
|
|

|
|

<H2>NOTES</H2><PRE>
|
|
It is customary to set the type to <STRONG>dialup</STRONG> for a dialin line. One can
|
|
check for that name in one's <STRONG>.profile</STRONG>.
