It worked for me fine but, since rungetty doesn't set the USER variable, HOME variable etc, bash, when run as "bash -l" will fail to rad ~/.profile ~/.bashrc, etc... There must be a way to have rungetty to set this variables or some app which logins into some user without prompting for pass :-/ Please tell if any idea springs up ;-) Greetings and thanks for all your help up to now!
