I heed someones help please. =20
I install freebsd 2.2.6 and I was trying to find out how to allow =
remote login access for root. It's not in any man page. on sun you just =
edit the login file but I dont have a clue on freebsd.
Anyway I was mucking around and added some entries to the /etc/ttys =
file . Like so:
ttyt0 none network no secure
I added this to all of the entries that have network beside them.
Well this is causing my machine to boot and start this looping that =
complains about it cant find ttyt0 and all of the others #'s that scrool =
off the screen. I cant break the scrolling or login in to the other =
terms becaues the system runs out of processes.
I cant boot single user mode because the root_file system will be=20
read_only. And I cant boot from the install floppy because theres no =
mount command on the floppy disks.
There has to be some kind of way to boot a trouble system before the =
ttys file is looked at.
Thanks!
Clarence
