I've asked this question before, but maybe now that we're on the
thread...=) If you have a machine and you want to have a serial console
running off it (as in the machine is fully up, running X, whatever, and
you want to be able to login to it from a dumb terminal at the same
time), you just edit /etc/ttys.. fine. But, if you stop using dumb
terminal (quit ZTerm), then you get complaints from getty about "retries"
ad infinitum... any ideas?
