I am posting this for an associate here at AEDC.  He began getting a message
logged to his SYSLOG & console yesterday that looks something like this:

getty: cannot open "ttyd45". ERRNO=6, FD=-1
getty: cannot open "ttyd46". ERRNO=6, FD=-1
getty: cannot open "ttyd47". ERRNO=6, FD=-1

He has a 4D220GTX running 3.3.1.  In his /etc/inittab file, the entries for
ttyd45, ttyd46, ttyd47 look like:

t45:23:respawn:/etc/getty ttyd45 co_9600            # port 45
t46:23:respawn:/etc/getty ttyd46 co_9600	    # port 46
t47:23:respawn:/etc/getty ttyd47 co_9600	    # port 47

Any quick responses will be appreciated. Thanks.
