Paul Sutcliffe Jr. posted a getty replacement for SysV in alt.sources a few
months back that does just this.  I have modified his code so it also knows
about "CONNECT XXXX" strings and sets the line speed.  My modifications
have only been tested on AT&T System V/386 R3.2.  If anyone is interested
I'll be happy to mail a them a copy.  There is both a getty an uugetty
version.

(Why do I have the feeling I'm going to regret this :-) :-) )
