Symbolic Links in /dev of a jail

[Anish Mistry]

Previously posted to -questions:
	In my quest to get asterisk+iaxmodem+hylafax working together in a 
jail I've run into one final roadblock.  I can't seem to figure out 
how to create a symbolic link (ln -s doesn't work) in /dev in the 
jail environment while in the jailed environment.   When trying to 
create a link with ln I receive:
ln -s somedev targetdev
ln: targetdev: Operation not permitted
	Adding a link entry to devfs.conf in the jail fails too since it 
receives the same error.  I can create a link in the jailed /dev from 
the host environment, so there seems to be some restriction on 
creating links in /dev while in the jail.  The reason I need to be 
able to do this is that iaxmodem needs to create a /dev/ttyIAX device 
to point to the correct ttyp* device when it starts in the jail.

	Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
