I get trouble from my OS, specifically with the finger command, if I have

finger: error STATing /dev/smb/31
...the IS is HP-UX 11. The reason, of course, is because /dev/smb does not
exist, and neither do any of the files in it. Does anyone know anything
about creating them, or does Samba not expect them to actually be used,
or...?
If anyone is more familiar with the technical aspects of the wtmp support,
your time would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
I have toyed with the idea of adding hooks that would allow the
administrator to create such links automatically when the user logs in -
indeed the original author of the UTMP support has wanted this for a
while, for exactly this reason.
In the meantime, just adding a smb directory and links to /dev/null will
do the job nicely :-)
This could be considered a bug in finger as much as anything :-)
