** Description changed: Binary package hint: udev When I ssh to my server I see "permission denied messages" in my console: [...] -bash: /dev/null: Permission denied -bash: /dev/null: Permission denied -bash: /dev/null: Permission denied -bash: /dev/null: Permission denied -bash: /dev/null: Permission denied -bash: /dev/null: Permission denied [...] I [Ctrl] + [c] out of this loop and get dropped to bash. Checking then the permissions on "/dev/null", I see "crw-------" owned by root:root. After a "# /etc/init.d/udev restart" the permissions are "crw-rw-rw-". I recently upgraded from stock Dapper to Edgy, and currently running "default" Edgy (2.6.17-10-386). udev is configured to properly set the permissions on the file (the following is in '/etc/udev/rules.d/40-permissions.rules': KERNEL=="null", MODE="0666"). I still experience this problem on every reboot. Attached is my "/var/log/udev". + "# udevtest /class/mem/null" gives: main: looking at device '/class/mem/null' from subsystem 'mem' udev_rules_get_name: no node name set, will use kernel name 'null' udev_db_get_device: no db file to read /dev/.udev/db/[EMAIL PROTECTED]@null: No such file or directory udev_node_add: creating device node '/dev/null', major = '1', minor = '3', mode = '0666', uid = '0', gid = '0' main: run: 'socket:/org/freedesktop/hal/udev_event' main: run: 'socket:/org/kernel/udev/monitor' + + + I don't know if this is related, but doing "# ls -al /dev/ | grep crw-------" gives + + crw------- 1 root root 5, 1 2006-10-31 07:39 console + crw------- 1 root root 109, 0 2006-10-30 23:46 lvm + crw------- 1 root root 1, 3 2006-10-27 22:52 null + crw------- 1 root root 108, 0 2006-10-27 22:52 ppp + crw------- 1 root root 4, 1 2006-10-30 23:46 tty1 + crw------- 1 root root 4, 2 2006-10-30 23:46 tty2 + crw------- 1 root root 4, 3 2006-10-30 23:46 tty3 + crw------- 1 root root 4, 4 2006-10-30 23:46 tty4 + crw------- 1 root root 4, 5 2006-10-30 23:46 tty5 + crw------- 1 root root 4, 6 2006-10-30 23:46 tty6 + + + And "# ls-al /lib/udev/devices/ |grep crw-------" gives + + crw------- 1 root root 5, 1 2006-10-27 22:52 console + crw------- 1 root root 1, 3 2006-10-27 22:52 null + crw------- 1 root root 108, 0 2006-10-27 22:52 ppp
