One thing I forgot to mention, but it is covered in the comments for devfsd.conf - if you change characteristics of something here (let's say cdrom stuff), you need to remove all the /dev/xxx entries manually before reboot. The entries will then be rebuilt properly with your specifications next time you reboot. -- Collins Richey - Denver Area - WWTLRD?
