Why would some strange ptp4l require char devices to be named as /dev/ptp%d through the kernel doesn't put such restrictions on device names (as far as i know)? Why can't I rename a PHC char device in udev and use ptp4l after that? The users can call ptp4l not only from strange script, but also directly. Other utilities in linuxptp (phc2sys, phc_ctl) work well with symlinks. -- Ivan Oleynikov STC Metrotek St.Petersburg ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Attend Shape: An AT&T Tech Expo July 15-16.
