   Anyone seen this?:  I've got a dn10k wired into a net of hp 9000's.  I'd like
   to be able to login to the 10K as root from the net (I'm sysadmin here, so this
   is no idle wish :-)).  Seems to be impossible. Telnet takes the root login and
   (correct) password and then fails with an "incorrect login" error.

# Append this to the /etc/ttys file to enable root login from the network
ttyp0  none                     network off      secure
ttyp1  none                     network off      secure

... and so on, up to ttypf of ttyqf or whatever is your highest pty.
