I added "on secure" to ttyp0 in /etc/ttys and enabled telnet in /etc/inetd.conf

this is so that I can telnet in as root to mess with the box

I know that this is considered bad practice but it is a private network in a lab (the spare bedroom :-) ) and I know the risks etc

problem now is that I am getting "init: can't get exec getty 'none' for port /dev/ttyp0: No such file or directory" messages all the time

how do I get rid of the annoying messages ?

thanks, Philip
