You can create a udev rule to create the symlink at boot. Edit your /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules and somewhere after the line that has 'KERNEL=="tty[pqrstuvwxyzabcdef][0123456789abcdef]"' add a line that contains the following: KERNEL=="ttyS0", SYMLINK+="modem" This should cause the symlink to be created at boot. Be careful to maintain permissions and structure on all udev rules files as you can cause some real headaches for yourself if they become corrupted. -- Thanks, Joshua Gimer --------------------------- http://www.linkedin.com/in/jgimer http://twitter.com/jgimer http://itsecops.blogspot.com/ -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
