I have a program that needs to write to file descriptor 3 via /dev/fd/3. But FreeBSD-5.3 doesn't let me do that, since only fd/0-2 exist. How
do I do this? "man fd" didn't help me.


You can mount fdescfs on top of /dev/fd using the following command as
root:

    mount -t fdescfs fdescfs /dev/fd


Thanks - it works.

How about adding fdescfs(5) to the "SEE ALSO" section of "man fd"?
