I changed /etc/devfs.rules, but no luck.

i change permissions on /dev/ulpt0 (in the jail) and now i can print a test 
page from Cups administration page.

PrintServer# ls -l /dev | grep ulpt0
crw-r--r--  1 root     operator    0,  79 Oct  2 10:51 ulpt0
PrintServer# chmod 666 /dev/ulpt0
PrintServer# ls -l /dev | grep ulpt0
crw-rw-rw-  1 root     operator    0,  79 Oct  2 10:51 ulpt0

i tried to set 666 for devfs.rules & devfs.conf in both host and jail, but 
that didn't work. 

any more ideas?
