	UGH! thats how Synchronet does it alright. one of the reasons
I rather  stick with the older Maximus approach. I only have one
dialup line and since the bbs is likely to be removed from the
internet due to cost, then the one console to one com port  sounds
perfectly fine to me.
	The only reason right now why I have to use agetty/getty to
run as a bbs user as that I also wanted my dialup users to be able to
access their shell accounts without having to go through the bbs.
