    Hi,

    I recently bought some Samsung USB-stick:
    umass0: 0 USB DRIVE, rev 2.00/2.00, addr 2
    da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
    da0: < USB DRIVE 2.00> Removable Direct Access SCSI-2 device
    da0: 40.000MB/s transfers
    da0: Attempt to query device size failed: UNIT ATTENTION, Not ready to
    ready change,

    it 1 GB.

    I created a devfs.conf-entry like this:
    lbe# egrep da0 /etc/devfs.conf
    perm da0 770
    perm da0s1 770

    but the permissions are still like this:
    lbe# ll /dev/da0*
    crw-r----- 1 root operator 11, 112 29 Aug 23:13 /dev/da0
    crw-r----- 1 root operator 11, 115 30 Aug 00:15 /dev/da0s1

    I first need to restart devfs:
    lbe# /etc/rc.d/devfs restart
    lbe# ll /dev/da0*
    crwxrwx--- 1 root operator 11, 112 29 Aug 23:13 /dev/da0
    crwxrwx--- 1 root operator 11, 115 29 Aug 23:13 /dev/da0s1

    Why does it ignore these settings until a restart of the service?

    cheers,
    Rainer
