Agetty is an alternative to System V/SunOS 4 getty. agetty opens a tty port, prompts for a login name and invokes the /bin/login command. It is normally invoked by init(8). The cygwin agetty port allows a user to logon into Windows NT box over a serial line (serial cable or modem). To install the package, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Then, run setup and answer all of the questions. You'll find agetty listed in the "System" category. If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin mailing list at: cygwin AT cygwin DOT com . I would appreciate it if you would use this mailing list rather than emailing me directly. Sergey Okhapkin Somerset, NJ
