Subject:   Strange behavior with /dev/null
Message-ID:  <20030111152722.GA12302@keyslapper.org>

Strange behavior I'm getting since I last did a mergemaster and
MAKEDEV in /dev:

cannot create /dev/null: permission denied

$ cat ConfigFvwmMenus > /dev/null
-bash: /dev/null: Permission denied

$ ls -l /dev/null
crw-------  1 root  wheel    2,   2 Jan 11 10:00 /dev/null
$ file /dev/null
/dev/null: character special (2/2)

I am running 4.6.2-RELEASE #5.  What did I miss here?  I'm beginning
to wonder if this may be causing some of my other problems with fvwm
menu/keystroke xterm execution.

TIA
Lou
