Add secure to the end of the ttyp lines. The secure tells the system that uid 0 (root) can log in on that terminal. I've never tried it on a network tty, but it should work. I don't recommend it though. Logging in as a normal user and then su'ing is a good habit to get into. > Is there something similar to Pico in FreeBSD?

Anyways, run /stand/sysinstall and install the pine port (in the mail category.) Pine comes with the editor pico. Or you can cd into /usr/ports/mail/pine4 and type make install as root. You should check out the FreeBSD handbook section on ports/packages at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook23.html#25.
