Two questions: 1: What controls all the messages that are displayed on the console (i.e., root login, failed logins, etc.) and is there a way to redirect that somewhere or turn it off?? 2: I've installed FreeBSD a few times on my machine at home and sometimes telnet to it from my laptop, or even telnet locally and have never seen this before--when it gives me a login prompt, I don't see the usual FreeBSD/i386 (ttyp0) login: but something like this: / (ttyp0) login: Really just an annoyance, but I can't figure out how it happened. I thought perhaps it was something in one of the terminal related files like termcap or ttys but I haven't changed anything in those files (and then again, I wouldn't know what to look for...) Any ideas? ER To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
