RE: getty and inittab
IGNORE THIS MESSAGE!
I think "init q" re-reads inittab.
But, a long time ago, on a job, I did "init -q" on a SysV box, or was it
BSD? Regardless, it was the wrong one, and I rebooted all our production
machines in the middle of a run.
So, that's why I say you should ignore me telling you to issue any "init"
commands.

Subject: getty and inittab
hiya folks,
if I need to remove all of the tty's except number one, I suppose I just
comment out the 2-6 tty's in inittab. But how do I kill off the five
already running getty's ? If I try a kill -9 I only get a new fresh
restarted getty imediately.
I dont want a reboot,
Niclas
