NAME
	GETTY:PASSWD

SYNOPSIS
	-

DESCRIPTION
	GETTY:PASSWD is similar to the UNIX /etc/passwd file and is
	currently used by Getty to verify remote logins and run the
	appropriate 'shell', which in most cases will be uucico.  The
	format is:

	------ start of GETTY:PASSWD -----

	# Put any comment here
	#
	# User,Password,Uid,GroupId,Finger-Info,Home-Dir,Command-To-Run

	bbs,*,10,0,BBS,ram:,mybbs:c/mybbs
	foo,bar,23,2,The Guy,ram:,uucp:c/uucico
	gaa,xxx,24,2,The Guy,ram:,uucp:c/uucico

	------ end of UUCP:LIB/PASSWD -------

	NOTE:  Unlike manually run UUCicos, you do not specify a
	-UNIT or -DEVICE option for uucico's run from a getty.  Getty
	automatically supplies these arguments to the program it runs.

	The above example runs uucico when somebody logs in as 'foo'
	with the proper password (bar).  Normally the user runs a
	Getty from s:startup-sequence for each serial port he wishes
	to allow logins on.

	The GETTY:PASSWD file combined with appropriate entries and
	a running Getty allow arbitrary UUCP connections to be made
	into your Amiga.

	Sendmail will add your finger info to the From: field of any
	mail message.

FIELDS
	User	=   user name, up to 8 characters

	Password=   password, up to 8 characters (uncrypted for now)
		    * = no password

	Uid	=   unique numerical id (don't use 0 please), this WILL
		    be used by some programs to find password entries.
		    Give each entry a different UID.

	Gid	=   not currently used, set to 2 (don't use 0).

	Finger	=   Finger information (your name).  Future sub fields
		    within the finger information will be separated by
		    colons (:).

	Home-Dir=   Directory from which to run the command

	Command =   Command to run.  This command CANNOT BE A BCPL PROGRAM.
		    Command is run with arguments you specify plus:

		    -DEVICE devicename -UNIT unitname

		    Where the devicename and unitname together make up
		    a serial port which the command should use for further
		    communications.  stdin and stdout are set to NULL:,
		    as is the console handler.

		    (Getty accomplishes all of this)

		    If there is a '*' infront of the command name,
		    then Getty will setup stdin and stdout using the
		    FIFO: device and fifo.library, allowing programs
		    to use stdio to talk to the serial device
