I am assuming your running Solaris 2.x, if your are running 1.x it is 
similer.  Both of them are in the documentation.

Add this line to /etc/inittab
fg:3:respawn:/usr/local/sbin/faxgetty tty3

teh fields are (from inittab man page)
unique identifier : when you wnat it to be started : what you want started.

NOTE I found that I got "responing to rapidly" messages with I finally 
tracked down to the fact that /usr/local/lib is NOT in the standard LD 
path, so it couldn't find the libtiff libiary, although I could run it 
from the command line.  I had to move libtiff to /usr/lib.
