I hope its a typo since ttyN is not the same as ttySN (N=0,1,....etc) e.g., terminals vs. serial lines.
Said that, by default I had more that the really existing serial lines (ttySN) configured To fix that edit the file you'll get after # find /etc | xargs grep tty I remember editing that file as recommended in it. Bruce: That could be part of the installation process in Debian 1.2 maybe. ______________________________ Reply Separator _________________________________ Subject: Getty ports - dumb question Author: [EMAIL PROTECTED] at cclink Date: 09.09.96 10:02 I did a ps and found these getty ports running: 186 2 S 0:00 /sbin/getty 9600 tty2 187 3 S 0:00 /sbin/getty 9600 tty3 188 4 S 0:00 /sbin/getty 9600 tty4 189 5 S 0:00 /sbin/getty 9600 tty5 190 6 S 0:00 /sbin/getty 9600 tty6 I only have 2 serial ports ttyS0 and ttyS1. Should these getty ports be running? How are these ports accessed? Are they physical RS-232 ports? Jim
