<p><strong>From Todd Blake on 27 May 1998
<!-- begin body -->
<BR><BR>
I like most people am the only person to use my linux system at home.
What I'd like to do is when my system is done booting to have me
automatically login as my main user account(not as root though) on one
virtual console(the first) and leave all other consoles and virtual
consoles alone, so that someone telnetting in will get a login prompt
like normal, just that I won't. I'd still like the other vc's have
login's for others to login and other reasons. I've tried just putting
<TT>/bin/sh</TT> in <TT>/etc/inittab</TT> and that didn't work, and I'm stumped. Does
anyone have any ideas on this?

Almost right.
<br><br>
If you want this to "always" be running (i.e. when you
type "<TT>exit</TT>" from that shell the system "respawns" a
new shell under your UID -- you can use the '<TT>open</TT>' command
something like so:
<blockquote><code># Run gettys in standard runlevels
<br>## 1:12345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty1
<br>1:12345:respawn:/usr/bin/open -c 1 -w -- su -c - todd /bin/sh
</code></blockquote>
