sshd wants to change permissions on /dev/ttyXX when you login so that only you can write to it (or your group) - i originally dealt with this in flashdist by making /dev/ttyXX symbolic links to the actual devices at writeable (mfs) /var/run/dev/ttyXX. unfortunately, sshd uses login() to write your login entries to utmp, which fails if ttyname() decides that your device is not an actual character device. this was a problem with flashdist, symbolic links caused ttyname() to fail so utmp was always empty - and then i moved /dev to full mfs _______________________________________________ Soekris-tech mailing list Soekris-tech@lists.soekris.com http://lists.soekris.com/mailman/listinfo/soekris-tech
