    Summary: A getty replacement for use with data and fax modems
    Description: 
    The mgetty package contains a "smart" getty which allows logins over a
    serial line (i.e., through a modem).  If you're using a Class 2 or 2.0
    modem, mgetty can receive faxes.  If you also need to send faxes, you'll
    need to install the sendfax program.
    
    If you'll be dialing in to your system using a modem, you should install
    the mgetty package.  If you'd like to send faxes using mgetty and your
    modem, you'll need to install the mgetty-sendfax program.  If you need a
    viewer for faxes, you'll also need to install the mgetty-viewfax package.
