I know how to use mknod all right, but I cannot seem to find the spec for /dev/null anywhere in the conf files. I'm using AT&T System V Release 3.2. Anybody out there know a clever way or ways to mine it out of the kernel or conf files? -- Eric S. Raymond = eric@snark.thyrsus.com (mad mastermind of TMN-Netnews)
