getty control

[A1 jeff giordano]

This is a little utility i whipped up to control the getty
on ph0 of my UNIX-PC.  I have only one phone line and
wanted to have the machine available to some of my friends
at night.  I have been using this setup for about six months
without a hitch, so i think it is safe and stable.  None
of the programs run set uid so there should be no security
holes.  Enjoy!

XI only have one phone line, and wanted to be able to
Xto have data communication at night.  There seemed to
Xbe no preset way to do this so I made this up.  I have been using
Xstart_getty for about six months and have not had a problem yet.
X
XWhat I did was to set up another run level, level 3, that included
Xa getty for /dev/ph0.  However getty does not check the phoneline
Xto see if it is off-hook first.  This can lead to cut off phone
Xcalls.  So before changing the run level, I check the phone.
XIf it is off hook I sleep until it goes on-hook.  The telinit
Xcan then be done with out the fear of having phone
Xcalls cut off.  There was also another problem.  The phone manager
Xseemed to get in the way.  So instead of trying to deal with it
XI just kill it, and forget it.  If you want to keep it running
Xduring the daytime change stop_getty to restart it.
X
X
XInstructions:
X
X1) change your inittab to look like this:
X   (note the extra run levels)
X
Xis:2:initdefault:
Xrc::bootwait:/etc/rc > /dev/null 2>&1
X vid:23:respawn:/etc/getty window 9600
X ph0:3:respawn:/etc/getty ph0 1200
X:ph1:2:respawn:/etc/getty ph1 1200
X 000:23:respawn:/etc/getty tty000 9600
X
X2) add the following lines to your crontab
X   (put in any times that you like)
X
X  01 01 * * * /bin/su root -c "/usr/local/bin/start_getty > /dev/null"
X  01 06 * * * /bin/su root -c "/usr/local/bin/stop_getty > /dev/null"
X
X3) put start_getty, stop_getty, & phonetest into /usr/local/bin.
X
XNow every day at the specified time your computer will start and stop a getty.
X
XEnjoy this.  If you find any bugs mail me at:
