[-- Attachment #1 --] In my quest to get asterisk+iaxmodem+hylafax working together in a jail I've run into one final roadblock. I can't seem to figure out how to create a symbolic link (ln -s doesn't work) in /dev in the jail environment while in the jailed environment. When trying to create a link with ln I receive: ln -s somedev targetdev ln: targetdev: Operation not permitted Adding a link entry to devfs.conf in the jail fails too since it receives the same error. I can create a link in the jailed /dev from the host environment, so there seems to be some restriction on creating links in /dev while in the jail. The reason I need to be able to do this is that iaxmodem needs to create a /dev/ttyIAX device to point to the correct ttyp0 device when it starts in the jail. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
