We too have seen the ringing getty problem, under Ultrix 3.1 on a
Vaxstation 3100 model 30.  We opted for a hardware solution and added
some resistors (around 40 kiloOhms) to the cables we use.  Leaving the
terminals on wasn't a solution for us, because some of them are hooked
through switch boxes to connect them to multiple machines.

Unfortunately, I'm not an RS-232 wizard and don't recall which lines we
connected.  If you want more info, mail me and I'll dig it up.
