If you want the person logged into the console to always have permissions, then you can create a console.perms rule to change ownership when the user logs in, and change it back when they log out. /etc/security//console.perms.d/tty0.perms # tty0 permissions for use with minicom # <minicom>=/dev/tty0 <console> 0600 <minicom> 0660 root.uucp On the other hand, the default udev setup sets it to permission 660 and ownerd by root.uucp, so if you add users to the uucp group, they will be able to access all the serial ports. You may also want to restrict the people that can use minicom by editing /etc/minicom.users Mikkel -- Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for thou art crunchy and taste good with Ketchup!
