hlogin

A replacement for /bin/login which provides a friendly TUI greeter.

DISCLAIMER: While I'm reasonably sure this program is secure, I can't guarantee that for certain. Use it at your own risk.

TODO

  • Respect /etc/login.defs
  • UTF-8 support
  • Appearance customization

Install

hlogin depends on ncursesw, panel, and pam. It also requires GNU Autotools and pkg-config.

Generate autotools files:

aclocal
autoheader
automake
autoconf

Configure, build, and install:

./configure --prefix="/usr"
make
sudo make install

To use hlogin with agetty, add the options -n -l /usr/bin/hlogin to it in your inittab, like so:

c1:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty -n -l /usr/bin/hlogin 38400 tty1 linux
