getty on osf1 v. 2.0

I'm searching for additional information about what getty does
with the parameters "terminal" and "line_discpipline".

The "terminal" parameter is fairly obvious but how does getty
handle over the information to the login program?

I can find no information about "line_discipline".

In ultrix getttynam() returns information about what terminal
is defined for a tty. getttynam() on osf1 only returns information
about the security of the tty.

We're running osf1 v. 2.0B on 2100, 300LX and 200 4/166 boxes.

Please forgive my ignorance if this message doesn't belong in this
group.
