163The kernel configuration of each UNIX system is described by
164a single configuration file, stored in the
165.Pn /sys/<architecture>/conf
166directory.
167To learn about the format of this file and the procedure used
168to build system images,

201access from directly-connected terminals other than the console,
202the file
203.Pn /etc/ttys
204(see
205.Xr ttys (5))
206must be edited.
207.PP
208To add a new terminal device, be sure the device is configured into the system
209and that the special files for the device exist in
210.Pn /dev .
211Then, enable the appropriate lines of
212.Pn /etc/ttys
213by setting the ``status''
214field to \fBon\fP (or add new lines).
215Note that lines in
216.Pn /etc/ttys
217are one-for-one with entries in the file of current users
218(see
--- 85 unchanged lines hidden (view full) ---
304printed on the console, though other actions may occur depending
305on the configuration information found in
306.Pn /etc/syslog.conf .
307.PP
308Finally note that you should change the names of any dialup
309terminals to ttyd?
310where ? is in [0-9a-zA-Z], as some programs use this property of the
311names to determine if a terminal is a dialup.
312.PP
313While it is possible to use truly arbitrary strings for terminal names,
314the accounting and noticeably the
315.Xr ps (1)
316command make good use of the convention that tty names
317(by default, and also after dialups are named as suggested above)
318are distinct in the last 2 characters.
