Hello,
To get a logion on a serial line you should alter /etc/ttys:
com01 /usr/libexec/getty std.2400 unknown on secure
^
| /dev/com01 device file
^
| program to run on that port. getty is for notmal login.
^
| port settings see /etc/gettytab
^
| initial setting of $TERM
^
|on: use the entry
|off: ignore entry.
^
| secure allows
root to login on this line.
dont forget to
# kill -1 1
so that init knows you modified the file.
