Hi, I try to setup a kind of rescue console for a few users of mine. As Jeff described in the howto and in his book, there should be a simple setup of connecting to uml instances with each other.
master_uml -> slave_uml User connects via ssh to master_uml. The /etc/passwd there points to a screen /dev/tty which is connected to a tty(s) on the slave_uml - resulting in the login screen of the slave_uml shown to the user loggin into the master_uml. I always started my uml instances by invoking con=pts con0=fd:0,fd:1 and an entry into the /etc/inittab about 0:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 ttyS0 That worked well for attaching a screen, but it won't work correctly with the above setup. Every time I try to attach a pts, there's an error message about fd:0 being assigned twice. Could anyone please help me on this issue? I'm hopeless after trying all kinds of configs for days. How should I setup the inittab in the instance correctly and how should I set the cmdline to invoke the instance? I would like to - reach the instance's login from the host by screen - reach the instance's login from another uml instance when connecting to the other instance Many thanks in advance, Karl -- Der GMX SmartSurfer hilft bis zu 70% Ihrer Onlinekosten zu sparen!
