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 -- Lysergius says "Stay light and trust gravity"
