I think Donald Russell mentioned it before, the terminal identifier has to
match the terminal entries you specified in /etc/inittab and default to
lnxhvc0 if you don't give it a specific terminal id on the ts-shell.   Also
you have to reboot or run "init q" to reread /etc/inittab to make sure the
terminal programs are spawned.  For example,  if you put something like the
following in /etc/inittab:

      V1:2345:respawn:/usr/bin/iucvtty iucv1
      V2:2345:respawn:/usr/bin/iucvtty iucv2

ps should show some corresponding processes:

      [r...@lac0022 ~]#  ps -ef | grep iucvtty
      root      1866     1  0 16:44 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/iucvtty
iucv2
      root      1961     1  0 17:22 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/iucvtty
iucv1
      root      2020  1677  0 17:34 pts/0    00:00:00 grep iucvtty
      [r...@lac0022 ~]#

You then connect by giving the matching terminal identifier (or you can
leave the identifier out if you had defined lnxhvc0), ex:

      r...@ts-shell> connect LAC0022 iucv1
      ts-shell: Connecting to LAC0022 (terminal identifier: iucv1)...
      login: root
      Password:
      Last login: Tue Oct 20 17:23:32 from LAC0031
      [r...@lac0022 ~]#

Then, make sure the terminal connections are allowed.  The sessions appear
to use pseudo-terminal device files (pts/0, pts/1, etc), but are treated
like login shells and need to have corresponding entries in /etc/securetty.
For example:

      [r...@lac0022 ~]# echo 'pts/2' >> /etc/securetty
      [r...@lac0022 ~]#

Since the pseudo-terminal device files are also used by other programs,
like sshd, make sure to add enough entries (or add one for the next unused
entry) to allow for the connection.
