Date: 19 May 1994 05:36:22 GMT Organization: Oregon Extension Service Lines: 35 Message-ID: <2retsm$cv7@gaia.ucs.orst.edu> References: <94May18.154450.18864@eeubln.in-berlin.de> NNTP-Posting-Host: sulaco.oes.orst.edu I believe that you are looking for something like this. In the /etc/ttys file to change a root login on a modem on tty00 you must have something like this: tty00 "/usr/libexec/getty bidir.57600" vt100 on secure The secure on the end of the line allow root logins. Hope this helps. James Miller millerj@oes.orst.edu In article <94May18.154450.18864@eeubln.in-berlin.de>, Nora E.
