I have a machine that I typically access remotely via telnet or ssh. I would like to receive console messages on my remote terminal. (This is the machine I mailed here about two days ago which had cron inexplicably crash; I want to keep an eye on it). I added a /etc/fbtab so that I will own /dev/console, /dev/ttyp0 0600 /dev/console But I can't seem to redirect it how I want. I tried just, % /dev/console > /dev/ttyp0 & And then, % echo "TEST" > /dev/console But nothing popped up on the ttyp0 terminal (but it did on ttyv0). I would actually like to tee the output to both ttyp0 and ttyv0. What is the "best" way to do this? BTW, the machine in question does not have X installed so the way I would typically do it, 'xconsole' or 'xterm -C,' are not options. -- Crist J.
