Hi,

Saw that your question was mentioned twice, that does not make it a high =
priority question ;-)...
Perhaps you should read your manual pages for more information {man =
devfs},
Also, i thought {unsure} that when you have a lpt port enabled, it get's =
detected during
boot sequence, and then accordingly devfs makes mountpoints for you.

Hope this helped a little,
