/dev/null someone screwed up, plz help

2009-06-24 Thread Zachary Uram 
It seems my /dev/null is messed up, if i try to echo to it i get error:
bash: /dev/null: No such device or address

Here is ls on it:
crw-r--r-- 1 root root 3, 2 2009-06-24 12:31 /dev/null

Can someone plz tell me the correct mknod command to run to fix it?

I am running Debian squeeze with kernel 2.6.26-2-686

On my system it is 1, 3 with perms of 666:

mknod -m 0666 /dev/null c 3 1
