ls -la /dev | grep cuaa0 gives:
crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 28, 128 May 30 21:49 cuaa0
i want to access cuaa0 using cutecom as a non-root user. so i tried:
pw groupmod dialer -m iain
now a groupshow gives me:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]> pw groupshow dialer
dialer:*:68:iain
but i still can't successfully open this file when i run cutecom as user
'iain'. if i run as user 'root' it works fine.
what am i missing??
Did user 'iain' log out and back in again after the group file was changed?
nope!! that must be it. thanks very much.
iain
