Re: ssh and devices
I actually have execute perms also...maybe that makes a difference?
I found the issue using strace:
strace ssh host
and it spews gibberish for a bit, then you see something like
open (/dev/tty),??? ENOACCESS(-1,????)
(sorry, from memory...)
which indicated that my user couldn't access the device, since the error
appeared shortly (in gibberish terms) before exit.
The open was successful when the I ran ssh as root, which worked right anyway.
good luck
