OS X creates it dynamically for USB serial devices when needed. This means it generally only exists during a sync, since that's the only time that the device is visible as a serial device on USB. You may have to make the device try to sync and then symlink to the USB tty device before it times out. In fact, jpilot somewhat depends on ancient Linux USB behavior which can be emulated to some extent with udev, but may not be easily achieved on OS X (and I recall having trouble with it even on older OS X, although it has been many years since I had a Palm device). -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allber...@gmail.com ballb...@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
