I'm in the process of setting up an SSH jail, for the most part its working as expected with one exception, I want to provide access to /dev/ttyUSB0 through /dev/ttyUSB4 (not 2) via cu. When I attempt to use "cu -lttyUSB0 -s9600" I always get "line in use" even through it is not in use and from another account not restricted to the "jail" I can successfully connect to the ttyUSB0. I've tried creating $chroot/ run/ lock/ lockdev/ uucp/ var/ run -> symbolic link to $chroot/run lock -> symbolic link to $chroot/run/lock and then matched the directory permissions so they are the same as the "real" system. ls -l $chroot/dev/ttyUSB? crwxrwxrwx 1 root dialout 188, 0 Jan 24 14:48 ttyUSB0 crwxrwxrwx 1 root dialout 188, 1 Jan 24 14:49 ttyUSB1 crwxrwxrwx 1 root dialout 188, 3 Jan 24 14:49 ttyUSB3 crwxrwxrwx 1 root dialout 188, 4 Jan 24 14:49 ttyUSB4 The dialout group is 18 and the user is in group 18, initially I set the permissions for the ttyUSB? to 660 before changing it to 777 as a last ditch effort. The "real" /dev/ttyUSB? - ls -l /dev/ttyUSB? crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 188, 0 Jan 24 14:44 /dev/ttyUSB0 crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 188, 1 Jan 23 21:48 /dev/ttyUSB1 crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 188, 3 Jan 24 15:12 /dev/ttyUSB3 crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 188, 4 Jan 23 21:48 /dev/ttyUSB4 I'm probably missing something simple and any suggestions would be appreciated.
Uhm, double check the permissions on the $chroot/var/run and $chroot/var/lock directories and make sure that the user you're trying to run as has write permissions in those directories. It's been a while, but IIRC the only way cu can determine if a device is in use is by checking the lock files and if it can't create a lock file, it says the device is in use. Why in the devil would you pull out that ancient program anyway? Man! I haven't even LOOKED at cu/uucp in 15 years at least! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, AllDigital ricks@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 226437340 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - Money can't buy happiness, but it can take the sting out of being - - miserable! - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
