Is there any way to change the login prompt generated by the telenet login
server from "<nodename> login:" to something else?  I know that if I were
connecting through hardwired tty ports, I could use "/etc/gettydefs", but
is there something I can do in the case of Ethernet ports?  As a side note,
I have changed the /etc/gettydefs entry for the console terminal, but it
also returns to the "<nodename> login:" version of the prompt if the first
login attempt fails.  Thanks in advance for any help.
