Re: little whole on Suns concerning /dev/kbd

For Solaris 2.x, use the file /etc/logindevperm.
Mine includes the lines:

/dev/console    0600    /dev/mouse:/dev/kbd
/dev/console    0600    /dev/sound/*            # audio devices
/dev/console    0600    /dev/fbs/*              # frame buffers

     But presumably this only works if you login on /dev/console?  If you are
using xdm then you will need to edit the Xstartup file to set the owner and
permission bits (and you should also reset then - ie. give them back to root -
in the Xreset file).
