I can't add this do devfsd. By dropping a file into /etc/devfs/conf.d/ containing the line: REGISTER ^net/tun$ PERMISSIONS root.uml-net 0660 user-mode-linux can do this itself though. devfs is deprecated upstream, and there is a better method described in the README.Debian. Could you give me a short hint, which README you're speaking about. Is it that one of devfsd, which explains shortly how to define new devices? Well, I've already fixed that. So I believe I know how to do that. However I wanted a general solution in Debian. Hmm, as devfs is depreciated anyway by upstream I'd like you to answer my question above and then simply close that bug.

Any package can drop a config file there. ciao, 2ri -- Secure email, spread GPG, clearsign all mail. http://www.gnupg.org .
