Can I have my box automatically login a user after reboot?

Running HP/UX 11.0 on a K-420.
Same user(s) needs to automatically be logged in after the sys is rebooted. This user is always on a dumb terminal and connects by way of a DTC.
Any way to log the user on from the box?

Any help greatly appreciated

I don't think there is a way that the system will force DTC to login into it .If it is a system, then I would have written a small remsh program as a start-up script to login into this system.

possibly a reverse telnet, but I doubt it? Maybe you can fool around with getty? Maybe you could modify your application and have it open the tty device directly?

If they had a X type device (or a PC running an xserver like Exceed) you can (I have done this after a reboot) using xterm -display :0
