Bug ID: 204918
Summary: Serial console instruction out of date (/etc/ttys
differ)
Product: Documentation
Version: Latest
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Some People
Priority: ---
Component: Documentation
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Handbook states that in order to enable login via serial console one must edit
/etc/ttys:
"3. Edit /etc/ttys and change off to on and dialup to vt100 for the ttyu0
entry. Otherwise, a password will not be required to connect via the serial
console, resulting in a potential security hole."
This is not necessary because of "onifconsole". Tested on 10.2 but this flag
was introduced with 9.3.
