It does! creating /dev/pts and mounting it, now remote logins goto /dev/pts/XX again, and no more funny characters! That's weird! Wonder what's up w/ "/dev/ttypxx"... Interesting. I always left those ttyp's in my kernel for compat cases, but apparently they aren't getting tested very much and can come up w/some strange settings. Double interesting... something had to have deleted it on boot, since a new mount of "devtmpfs" includes it. Hmmm... In addition to that mystery -- still don't know what initialization is missing from the /dev/ttyp case that is likely causing it's acting strange, but if it hadn't been config'ed into my kernel, I wouldn't have been able to remotely log in, and that would have been a real drag...
