OK, I got that to work. I am interested in using this as a secure method to access my firewall from another machine. How do I disallow logins via the network, but allow them via the local (at the kbd) and remote (via serial cable) only?
Also, will having a getty running on the serial port block the sending of oops messages via the serial port ?
