>Description:
In /etc/gettytab, the three lines below are not valid.
Using the 'np' flag will override any 'ep', 'op' or 'ap' flags
(have a look at /usr/src/libexec/getty/subr.c).
I suppose these lines are from some older incarnation of getty.
# np:ep: same as np except inpck.
# np:op: same as np:ep except for parodd (but parodd is overridden).
# np:ap: same as np except istrip.
>How-To-Repeat:
Use ':np:ep:', ':np:op:' or ':np:ap:' in a gettytab entry.
>Fix:
Remove the three lines from /etc/gettytab.
