Just to be clear on this point, are you saying that /dev/fd/4 does not exist when you look for it in a shell, or rather specifically when doing so in a context where it is in use? If you noticed that it's not there when e.g. simply listing the contents of /dev/fd then that's normal AFAIK. To illustrate this, here's some output from busybox shell, running on my laptop: =-=-=-=- ~ $ echo /dev/fd/* /dev/fd/0 /dev/fd/1 /dev/fd/10 /dev/fd/2 /dev/fd/3 ~ $ ( echo /dev/fd/* ) 4>&1 /dev/fd/0 /dev/fd/1 /dev/fd/10 /dev/fd/2 /dev/fd/3 /dev/fd/4 ~ $ ( echo /dev/fd/* ) 4>&1 5>&1 /dev/fd/0 /dev/fd/1 /dev/fd/10 /dev/fd/2 /dev/fd/3 /dev/fd/4 /dev/fd/5 ~ $ ( echo /dev/fd/* ) 6>&1 /dev/fd/0 /dev/fd/1 /dev/fd/10 /dev/fd/2 /dev/fd/3 /dev/fd/6 ~ $ =-=-=-=- Cheers, Phil. -- |)| Philip Hands [+44 (0)20 8530 9560] HANDS.COM Ltd. |-| http://www.hands.com/ http://ftp.uk.debian.org/ |(| Hugo-Klemm-Strasse 34, 21075 Hamburg, GERMANY
