One way is in udev rules. I link /dev/gps, for example, to /dev/ttyS1, and make nice permissions with this rule: KERNEL=="ttyS1", SYMLINK="gps", MODE="666", OPTIONS="last_rule" I put this in a file called /etc/udev/rules.d/99-rsoft.rules Also, if there is no /dev/ttyS1, I do not get a symlimk that points nowhere. No device, no symlink. -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Kapellgränd 7 P.O.
