--nextPart13050553.Vttrls2Esu Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Disposition: inline Previously posted to -questions: In my quest to get asterisk+iaxmodem+hylafax working together in a=20 jail I've run into one final roadblock. I can't seem to figure out=20 how to create a symbolic link (ln -s doesn't work) in /dev in the=20 jail environment while in the jailed environment. When trying to=20 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=20 receives the same error. I can create a link in the jailed /dev from=20 the host environment, so there seems to be some restriction on=20 creating links in /dev while in the jail. The reason I need to be=20 able to do this is that iaxmodem needs to create a /dev/ttyIAX device=20 to point to the correct ttyp* device when it starts in the jail. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
