I think the issue came down to the fact that with kFreeBSD, /dev is a devfs, which cannot handle FIFOs, only block and character nodes and symlinks. I don't even know if that's still the case; my only kFreeBSD machine was moved back to Linux due to some problems with the earlier versions of kFreeBSD, like bind9 not working. -- brian m. carlson / brian with sandals: Houston, Texas, US +1 713 440 7475 | http://crustytoothpaste.ath.cx/~bmc | My opinion only OpenPGP: RSA v4 4096b 88AC E9B2 9196 305B A994 7552 F1BA 225C 0223 B187
