Well, here it is. Read the source. Let me know.

# it by saving it into a file and typing "sh file".  To overwrite existing
# files, type "sh file -c".  You can also feed this as standard input via

XThis is a replacement for the UNIXpc program "setgetty". This program is run
Xby the files /usr/bin/geto{n|ff}.sh, which are run by the dial(3) library call
Xto get the getty off a tty line when dialing out, and to put it back when done.
XThat's all well and good, except it screws up sometimes and just sits there
Xwith the getty offm chewing up CPU and NOT turning the getty back on. I'm not
Xentirely sure why it gets stuck. I think it has something to do with the fact
Xthat it's looking at the /etc/utmp file to decide if there is currectly a user
Xor login process on the line. This program does not check the utmp file. This
Xis what it DOES do:
X
X1. Open /etc/inittab r/w
X2. Read the whole thing into a buffer in one call
X3. Finds the first occurance of the right label
X3. Sets the first character to a space or colon
X4. If a change was done, it writes the inittab back out in one call.
X
XYou may ask "What, documentation, what is this?". Well, this program, like
Xsetgetty has to have the executable owned by and setuid root:
X-rwsr-xr-x  1 root    bin        2156 Jan  1  1970 /usr/bin/setgetty
X
XInstalltion:
X1. cc -cO -o sg.o sg.c
X2. ld -s -o sg /lib/crt0s.o /lib/shlib.ifile sg.o
X3. chown root sg
X4. chmod 4755 sg
X5. mv /usr/bin/setgetty /usr/bin/osetgetty
X6. mv sg /usr/bin/setgetty
X
XFor some reason, cu and uucico through dial(3) don't run getoff.sh when the
Xprogram running on the line is not a LOGIN process. Hmm, beats me. As always,
Xlet me know if you have any problems: John B. Milton, jbm at uncle
