I think this can be done with agetty, using a little shell script that just does #!/bin/sh telnet whereever.com and setting the login program to that shell script using the -l option on agetty, and the -n option so it doesn't ask for a username.. I don't know how secure this would be though since the script and telnet will be run as root.. --Barry -- "And the next time you consider complaining that running Lucid Emacs 19.05 via NFS from a remote Linux machine in Paraguay doesn't seem to get the background colors right, you'll know who to thank."
