OPT_NOLOGON - Disable logon prompt in FlI4L


Thomas Mueller

this package was sponsored by headwork Consulting GmbH

Description

Optional package to disable the logon prompt on the FlI4L console. This means the prompt you get after the router has finished booting. This package does not disable the login prompt when connecting via telnet, ssh or ftp.

The package consists of a startup script that replaces the symbolic link

'/bin/login' -> '/usr/local/bin/mini-login'

with

'/bin/login' -> '/bin/sh'
