    Solaris 8
    SUN patches
    After Patches in Single user mode reboot -- -r

    Problem:
    telnetd: open /dev/logindmux: No such device or address

    I saw some postings and tried to load it manually but can't. It
    resets the name_to_major back to 4 and can't load it:

    # rem_drv logindmux
    Driver (logindmux) not installed.
    # add_drv logindmux
    devfsadm: driver failed to attach: logindmux
    Warning: Driver (logindmux) successfully added to system but
    failed to attach

    # grep dmux name_to_major
    logindmux 4

    The link is ther under /dev and the pseudo device is also
    thare.. I remove the driver and did an mknod on the file with
    118 but still can't get it to work:

    #cd ../devices/pseudo/
    # ls -l | grep dmux
    crw------- 1 root sys 11, 4 Jul 6 2001
    clone@0:logindmux
    with:
    mknod logindmux c 11 118

    # ls -l | grep dmux
    crw------- 1 root sys 11, 118 Jul 6 2001
    clone@0:logindmux

    # rem_drv logindmux
    Driver (logindmux) not installed.
    # add_drv logindmux
    devfsadm: driver failed to attach: logindmux
    Warning: Driver (logindmux) successfully added to system but
    failed to attach

    If I change the name_to_major to 118 for logindmux and
    reboot -- -r Will it fix this problem? What else can be done
    to fix this problem wiht telnet?

    Carlos
