FreeBSD mercury 5.4-RC4 FreeBSD 5.4-RC4 #0: Sun May  1 23:22:09 IDT 2005     root@mercury:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/MYKERNEL  i386
>Description:
By default /etc/gettytab have following lines:

default:\
        :cb:ce:ck:lc:fd#1000:im=\r\n%s/%m (%h) (%t)\r\n\r\n:sp#1200:\
        :if=/etc/issue:

The 'if' option specifies a text file that their contents will be processed like contents of a 'im' gettytab(5) option. Both getty(8) and telnetd(8) ignore the 'if' option, the first because of a bug in the code and the second because it is not implemented. However, the telnetd(8) manual page states that it is implemented.
>How-To-Repeat:
Just create the /etc/issue file with some text in it and see how telnetd(8) and getty(8) work. You don't have to reboot when you test getty(8). Instead you can press [Ctrl]+[D] to restart getty(8) or [Enter] to just make it reprint the full login prompt. Also, you might need to enable inetd(8) and eding an /etc/inetd.conf to make telnetd working.
