So somehow I have to get my modem to use telnetd as the program instead of going
 to getty, then when a client telnet's to my system the password will not appear
 when the client types it.

freebsd handbook doesn't mention this behavior about ttys and dialin specifier, 
or just a std.9600 specifier.

A new adventure.
