The permissions are different how?

If the server is going to have any local users on it (ie they can telnet
to it, or dial into it without having ppp forced upon them) you need to
make sure they cannot access the devices.  You should probably change
the group to tty to match the way your distro set up the rest of your
system, and chmod them to 660.
