I'm running Freebsd 5.1and I'm unable to create a device file or pipe file in the /dev directory. /dev is a devfs file system which seems to be the problem. Is there any way around this? Either by adding an entry to a kernel config file or using the devfs command to create them? I have a backup program that needs to create a device file and pipe file that reside in /dev This is a must for my backups and recovery. Thank You
