I was giving an example. udev currently obtains the permissions to use on node creation from the permissions.d list. Symlinks are created without special permissions, or reference to the permissions list. If you ask me, permissions.d list should be extended by inner join with the symlinks list for each node. Then I would not have to touch symlinks and only the actual device pointed to gets changed. --=20 .''`. martin f. krafft : :' : proud Debian developer, admin, user, and author `. `'` `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing a system =20 Invalid/expired PGP subkeys?
