- I've got two problems, that I can't solve... I've look in the FAQ, and
- didn't see anything related to either, so here goes...
-
- Why is root login refused on some terminals? I've encountered this in
- two places. first, I've added a couple extra getty calls in inittab so I can
- login to tty5 and tty6, but if I try to login as root, I get the message
- "root login refused on this terminal." Same thing happens if I try to login
- as root from an xterm. What do I need to do to fix this?
-
- Second problem I've seen mentioned in the past, but apparently missed the
- solution... I'm using minicom, and when I start up kermit, I never see the
- kermit command prompt. How to fix this?
-
- I'm running version 0.99.
-
- Thanx in advance for any help.
