   Check your /etc/gettydefs file, and make sure the entry you're using has
'HUPCL' added to it.  I'm running getty_ps on a SVR4 system, with the modem
locked at 19200 baud.  Here's an entry from my gettydefs:

19200USR# B19200 OPOST ONLCR TAB3 BRKINT IGNPAR IXON IXANY ISTRIP ECHO ECHOE 
ECHOK ICANON ISIG HUPCL CS8 CREAD # B19200 OPOST ONLCR TAB3 BRKINT IGNPAR IXON 
IXANY ISTRIP ECHO ECHOE ECHOK ICANON ISIG HUPCL CS8 CREAD #login: #19200USR
