I've been trying to understand why when I telnet to my openbsd to a modem hooked
to the serial port, the password is echoed at the login prompt.
This happens from any linux client I've used to telnet to the openbsd system ove
r the serial port.
Same behavior happens with a linux system.
My setup is really simple.
modem is set to auto answer ats0=1
/etc/boot.conf has the following:
set tty com0
/etc/ttys has the following:
console "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" vt220 on secure
----------------------------------------------------------
Does anyone know why the password is shown, and how to get it to not echo when t
he user types it in?
