Greetings,

I'm transforming an old laptop into a network troubleshooting/mobile-dos box.
I want to have the box log in automatically on ttyv0 as a user, and then have
the user's shell be the cheezy diagnostic program I am going to write.

I tried hacking /etc/rc but for some reason it didn't work. Also, hacking
/etc/ttys was not the way to go :) Where should I be trying to hook in
to do this?

Thanks,

Mike
