in fact chan_ss7 uses this method to access a channel which provides the signalling link. And if I use that on the span>8 ... so than I can't use chan_ss7. Matthew, looking for a time when you'll sync your libss7 with 1.4 ;) Until now have to stick with chan_ss7. Not sure, but is this a limitation of DEVFS?

What do you need this for? If this is for asterisk, then you don't have anything to worry about. A very cursory overlook of chan_zap shows that it does not open the zap devices by those means. There is another mechanism for opening zap channels provided through /dev/zap/channel that gets around the limitation with devices nodes.
