Does init have to run a getty?

      A couple of days ago, a program came across the net to allow for
	one line to be used for voice and data.  A ring, hang up, then call
    will throw a getty on the port.  Now, my question is, how do I get
    init to put anyting but a getty on the port??  I looked in the inittab
	file, but it looks like the program name isn't even looked at.
	  So, I'm left pondering the question of, how do I make init throw
	something else on the port besides a getty??
	Thanks in advance for any help!
