Re: Need Help : Configuring OpenBSD to autologin

["Victor Lee" <pleader_(_at_)_hotmail_(_dot_)_com>]

Two interesting suggestions so far:

  1. Replacing getty with a login shell

  2. vi /etc/rc.local
      su - username
      append whatever you need into ~/files

I will try it first thing tomorrow. Thanks to all and keep the suggestions 
coming!
