.Dt TTYACTION 5
|
|
.Os
|
|
.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm ttyaction
|
|
.Nd ttyaction file format
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm ttyaction
|
|
file specifies site-specific commands to run
|
|
when a login session begins and ends. The
|
|
.Nm ttyaction
|
|
file contains a list of newline separated records, where
|
|
each record has the following three fields:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width username
|
|
.It ttyname
|
|
Name of the tty line(s) on which this line should apply.
|
|
The name is relative to the
|
|
.Pa /dev
|
|
directory, similar to how such devices are named in the
|
|
.Pa /etc/ttys
|
|
file.
|
|
.It action
|
|
Name of the action for which this line should apply.
|
|
The action names currently defined are "login" and "getty"
|
|
which indicate which program is processing this file.
|
|
(Note that "login" begins a login session, and "getty" is
|
|
run after a login session ends.)
|
|
.It command
|
|
What command to run if this record matches.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The first two fields are delimited with blanks or tabs,
|
|
and the command field is all text to the end of the line.
|
|
Either or both of first two fields may contain wildcard
|
|
match patterns as implemented by the
|
|
.Fn fnmatch
|
|
library function.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
All command strings are executed by passing them to
|
|
.Pa /bin/sh \-c
|
|
running as "root," with an environment containing:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
TTY=ttyname
|
|
ACT=action
|
|
USER=username
|
|
PATH=_PATH_STDPATH
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
These variables may be used directly in the shell command
|
|
part of the record for simple tasks such as changing the
|
|
ownership of related devices. For example:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
console * chown ${USER}.tty /dev/mouse
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
will
|
|
.Fa chown
|
|
the mouse appropriately when the console owner changes.
|
|
.Sh EXAMPLE
|
|
Here are some more example records:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
tty0 login /somewhere/tty_setup ${TTY}
|
|
tty0 getty /somewhere/tty_clean ${TTY}
|
|
* * /somewhere/ttyfrob ${TTY} ${ACT}
|
|
.Ed

|
.Pp

|
|
.Xr fnmatch 3 ,
|
|
.Xr ttyaction 3
|
|
.Sh HISTORY
|
|
The ideas for the
|
|
.Pa /etc/ttyaction
|
|
file were inspired by the
|
|
.Pa /etc/fbtab
|
|
file under SunOS.
