X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 07 Apr 2004 13:13:31 -0000 Hello, Is it useful/desireable to set schg flags on /dev/? Obviously, setting schg on /dev/null, for instance, prevents writing to it, which kind of defeats its purpose. There are probably other such devices that need to be written to. So, are then any devices in /dev/ that actually can be set schg? Thanks, - Mark
