getty's on tty1 and tty2 and uncomment getty on ttyS0 (com1). For
access through com2, com3 or com4 replace by ttyS1, ttyS2 and ttyS3
respectively.
Your inittab
file will look like:
<snip> # Format: # <id>:<runlevels>:<action>:<process> #1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty1 #2:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty2 #3:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty3 #4:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty4 #5:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty5 #6:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty6 # Example how to put a getty on a serial line (for a terminal) # T1:23:respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyS0 19200 vt100 <snip>
Enter 6) to edit /etc/securetty

Your file will look like:
# /etc/securetty: list of terminals on which root is allowed to login. # See securetty(5) and login(1). # # Include ttyp0, ttyp1, etc to allow telnet access. *NOT RECOMMENDED* ttyS0 tty1 tty2 tty3 tty4 tty5 tty6 tty7 tty8
Once this is done, backup etc.lrp
