Thank you to all those who posted or E-mailed me about the create process
problem.

We have re-created the /dev/crp devices, and things have got better.
In future we will check the ACLs.

However, they are not completely cured. We have a MUCH BIGGER problem,
and the CRP problem is but a small symptom of the bigger one!!!

See my next posting for details - this includes some private E-Mail,
which I am including - the more help the better.....





Interesting point about crp devices..... Only /dev/crp00 ever seems to
get used....


(tried CRPing onto a node about 20 times from a variety of sources....
 lots of crpxx things in /tmp, BUT only /dev/crp00 was locked....
 (this by doing llkob | grep '/dev' and llkob | grep '/tmp')
 Also - there are 16 crp devices, but you can crp onto a node more
 than 16 times......
 Curious - but as it seems to work I wont question why/how.
