  Okay, here is the question: I need to monitor a tty, a group of ttys (includi
ng [pt]tty).  Can I adjust the FIFO to pipe the info to a fil(like conlog)?   
If I tail -f,or cat the tty ports it skips an echo, and on the next line except
s
the input.  This may be an easy thing to do, it should be but because of the 
user friendly manuals I can't seem to find the info I need. By the way I am 
the system admin, and we are having a security/abuse problem.
