Newer versions should be on susix.jura.uni-sb.de/pub/linux/source/system
or sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/Admin/login or /pub/Linux/system/
Daemons/init/.

utmp-handling is from agetty in util-linux 2.5 (probably from
Peter Orbaek <poe@daimi.aau.dk>)

S.u.S.E. - GmbH has paid some of the time that was needed to write
this program. Thanks a lot for their support.

This getty can only be used as console getty. It is very small, but
should be very reliable. For a modem getty, I'd also use nothing else
but mgetty.

Usage: mingetty [--noclear] tty
Example entry in /etc/inittab: 1:123:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty1
