We have a Sun4/330 which acts as a file server. However it also has a GXP board on it. We would like to let our users have access to the monitor and keyboard but not the console. Is there a way of specifying /dev/ttya as the console device but still have access to the frame buffer? Our configuration is : Sun4/330 GXP board SunOS4.1 -- Mathew Lim, Unix Systems Programmer, ANU Supercomputer Facility, Australian National University, GPO Box 4, Canberra City, ACT, Australia 2601.
