I have a Sun 3/60 running SunOs 4.0, and I'd like to set an incoming
autobauding tty line.  I made the following entry in /etc/gettytab:

	M|Modem|Modem-Autobaud:\
		:ab:sp#1200:

and this entry in /etc/ttytab:

	ttya	"/usr/etc/getty Modem"		dialup		on secure

where ttya is the line I want to autobaud.  The problem is that the
autobauding doesn't seem to work!  The line gets set to 1200 baud
regardless of the speed of the modem or terminal connected to it.

Do you have any other ideas on how to implement this?

Thanks,
