Hi
Recently installed AMD64 6.3-stable and I am having a problem with
devfs.conf and /dev. I understand the entries in devfs.conf should modify
the permissions on devices in /dev. For some reason or other this is not
happening. Can anyone shed some light on this? What am I doing wrong?
This is the core of devfs.conf
# Access ATAPI CDROM
own /dev/acd0 root:wheel
perm /dev/acd0 0666
# Access SCSI CDROM
own /dev/cd0 root:wheel
perm /dev/cd0 0666
# Access floppy disk
own /dev/fd0 root:wheel
perm /dev/fd0 0666
# Access printer
own lpt0 root:wheel
perm lpt0 0660
#Access ATAPICAM devices
perm xpt0 0666
perm xpt1 0666
perm pass0 0666
perm pass1 0666
# Access USB devices
own /dev/da0 root:wheel
perm /dev/da* 0666
Thanks
