 Version 1.49 (20-Jun-97)
 	Small patches for new util-linux distribution and glibc compat.
 	PAM support in login.c by Erik Troan.

 		to HP-UX 8.0 by Michael Glad (glad@daimi.aau.dk), and

-who.c		A simple who(1) util. to list utmp. Done by me.
-		You may prefer the GNU who util. with more options
-		and features.

-hostname.c	A hostname(1) command to get and set the hostname. I did
-		this too.
-
-domainname.c	Like hostname, only reads out or sets the domainname.

 agetty.c	The getty program. From comp.sources.misc, by W.Z. Venema.
 		Hacked a bit by me.
 
-simpleinit.c	A simple init program, written by me. Uses /etc/inittab

-		A "kill -HUP" to init makes it re-read /etc/inittab.
-		A "kill -TSTP" to init makes it stop spawning gettys on the
-		ttys. A second "kill -TSTP" starts it again.
-		A kill -INT to init makes it attempt a reboot of the machine.
-		this works in connection with kernel support for softboot
-		when Ctrl-Alt-Del is pressed.
-
-		Init will start up in singleuser mode if /etc/singleboot
-		exists at boottime, or if it is given an argument of "single"
-		via eg. LILO. If /etc/securesingle exists it will ask for the

 mesg		A tiny shellscript, so you can avoid that other people write

-users		Another script that uses awk(1) and tr(1) to process the

----------
-A "make all" should do. At least it does for me.

-Installation:
--------------
-
-login		should go in /bin, if you don't like this change
-		pathnames.h and recompile at least agetty.

-getty, init	Put them in SBINDIR

-securetty	login needs this in /etc, defines which ttys that root
-		can login on. This should *never* include ttys{1,2}
-
-inittab		the simpleinit code needs this in /etc. Note that the syntax
-		of /etc/inittab has little to do with the syntax of a real
-		SysV inittab. Edit this one for your local setup.
-
-shells		The chsh program will use this if it's placed in /etc. It
-		defines the valid shell-programs. Have one abs. path on
-		each line.
-
-You can also do a "make install" as root, but don't just do it because I
-say so, check the Makefile first.
-
-"Make install" will install only the new binaries, and not motd, inittab,
-securetty and issue. To install these configuration files, do a 
-"make Install".
-
-Getty requires a /dev/console to write errors to. I just made it a symlink
-to /dev/tty1. Because of a bug in the tty driver this errorlogging may
-cause the shell on tty1 to logout.
-
 Getty will print the contents of /etc/issue if it's present before asking
 for username. Login will print the contents of /etc/motd after successful
 login. Login doesn't print /etc/motd, and doesn't check for mail if
