I've enabled the s/key passwords on my system.

Unfortunately now anytime I log in through the local keyboard and screen
still I'm requested to enter the S/Key password, not the UNIX one.

Since any access throuh the console device should be via UNIX passwords,
I'm suspecting that the keyboard/screen devices are nor really
considered the real console. In fact they are /dev/ttyv? and not really
/dev/console.

So how can I access the real console device?


Thanks and best regards

 -Marco
