Hi,

Do you have the proper ioctls to set baud rate, parity, start bits, stop bits 
so that the serial port is configured correctly?

What about flow control?  rts/cts, xon/xoff.

Dealing with a serial port is it's own art.

Wow, this is really interesting.
I'm curious, do the display managers like gdm/xdm, etc also have
to handle this?
I'm asking cuz I'm porting a display manager for linux (nothing to
do with openbsd,  but this discussion was very related).
I'm in a very similar position where the simplest answer would be
to disable a getty at one of the tty's and start the login prompt
there (its a visual prompt).

The baud rate, etc is only applicable to things running over serial RS-232 (and 422) ports.  The original poster specified it is running on "com0".

A display manager would not (typically) be talking over a serial port natively.  In the old days, X might be talking over a serial port using SLIP or some such technology, but that has all gone the way of the dodo bird.

Hi Misc,

I want to disable OpenBSD Login prompt at startup -and also after logging out-. 
Because I want to run my external program instead of ksh. There is an login 
prompt also in my program and I want to use it.

I updated the /etc/ttys ;

valdrin# cat /etc/ttys

I'm connected the device with com0 port so I updated the tty00 to run my 
external program. However; system is stucking after date appears on startup.

Also, I tried "chsh" and "chpass" , but still OpenBSD login prompt appears.. 
How can I overcome this issue?

Thanks..
