The following reply was made to PR bin/1665; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Bruce Evans <bde@zeta.org.au> To: FreeBSD-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.ORG, pjchilds@imforei.apana.org.au Cc: Subject: Re: bin/1665: libexec-telnetd deficiency Date: Mon, 23 Sep 1996 15:14:39 +1000 >>Synopsis: telnetd doesn't use gettytab %m %r %v %s tags This feature was Considered Harmful and removed when it was first introduced in getty. The broken version of it that you fixed in another PR sneaked in with the sgttyb -> termios conversion.

It's just not worth arguing over and any further emails I get on this topic will go straight to /dev/null. This is absolutely the last word on this topic you'll see from me. Too much time has already been wasted. ---------------------------- revision 1.7 date: 1995/08/01 13:12:24; author: jkh; state: Exp; lines: +27 -1 A useful aid..
