Hi,

Saw that your question was mentioned twice, that does not make it a high priority question ;-)...
Perhaps you should read your manual pages for more information {man devfs},
Also, i thought {unsure} that when you have a lpt port enabled, it get's detected during
boot sequence, and then accordingly devfs makes mountpoints for you.

Hope this helped a little,

Hi folks,
 
 FreeBSD 5.2
 
 I am now configuring printer and aware that 'MAKEDEV' has been replaced with 
 'devfs'
 
 According to handbook I should run
 
 # ./MAKEDEV lpt0 (para port)
 
 whether to be replaced with
 
 # ./devfs -m lpt0
 
 Kindly advise. �TIA
 
 B.R.
