I get the "login:" prompt, then "password:" prompt, and it dies. I've looked at the FAQ's, the handbook, asked questions, read the man pages, and still nothing. /etc/ttys are configured for std.19200, the rc.serial file has been tried default and with it in use. Ummmm.. What am I missing -- oh yeah, the passwords are good -- I can't even login myself! Any pointers as to what or where I need to look? Thanks... -sam- -- S.W.
