The /dev/tty ports are set as follows: crw-rw-rw- 1 root uucp 4, 64 Jun 22 21:13 /dev/ttyS0 crw-rw---- 1 root uucp 4, 65 Jun 22 17:10 /dev/ttyS1
Still, minicom works using /dev/ttyS0 as a non-root user, but fails to work as user root. Is there a pam or some other security mechanism preventing root from using minicom on /dev/ttyS0?
