I think some kind person answered this for me some time ago, but I can't locate the email.
I need to set up console redirection on Fujitsu Primergy servers with iRMC S4 remote management console hardware. I ssh to the management IP address, and all goes well up to the NetBSD boot menu - i.e. I can use setup remotely over an SSH connection and modify BIOS settings, and can choose from the default boot choices. But as soon as netbsd starts up I lose the connection. IIRC I need to change entries in /etc/ttys and one other place. The BIOS is set to redirect to Serial Port 1 (there is only one, so I assume this is com0). I this /dev/constty? Might I need to change its permissions? The remote management controller believes I am called admin, but at the point where I initially connect there is no access to the NetBSD passwd file. Thanks, -- Steve Blinkhorn <st...@prd.co.uk>
