Is it possible to plug a terminal into either the serial a/b port and login to the NeXT? I tried using this: csh < /dev/ttyb > &/dev/ttyb > /dev/ttyb & to redirect a shell i/o to that terminal. It didn't work. Is this because of getty somehow? (I was always under the impression getty locks out other attempts to open them) Any ideas?
