I currently have a Dec VT320 hooked up to my Debian box via a serial line on /dev/ttyS1. This box sits in the kitchen spewing the output of a tcpdump and provides and interesting way to monitor network activity in the house.
I currently have to login and run "tcpdump -i eth1". I'd like tcpdump to be run automatically when the console is powered up and for no input to be accepted from the keyboard. To that end I've investigated getty-ps and mgetty. Both want a login or at lease a username in the case of getty-ps. Has anyone successfully managed to get a prelogged in console working?
