Dear Andrea
>bash: /dev/null : permission denied something similar happened to me some time ago. http://lists.debian.org/debian-italian/2004/04/msg00308.html /dev/null is a special file : ls -l /dev/null returns: crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 3 2006-02-13 09:29 /dev/null >even chmodding 777 (as root) /dev/null did not solve the problem. In my case /dev/null had become (nobody knows how) a standard file, so many programs couldn't write on it and the just stopped. Check your permissions, and in case restore /dev/null as should.
