| Re: locked files ilaboo wrote: > using debian started getting this error using kppp > > unable to create modem lock file Does kppp have permission to write in /var/lock/ > > konquerer show /dev all tty's are locked I have been running UNIX since about 1971, and Linux since 1998, and do not know what you mean by a file being locked. Files in /dev are mostly device files, and files have read, write, and execute permissions (man ls). Most files also have attributes (man lsattr and man chattr), but not, I believe, those in /dev > > how can i uinlock there files? > If there is a file such as LCK..ttyS4 (the lock file for my modem) in /var/lock, you can remove it if you have permission. Normally, you should not do this, but close the connection and then the software will automatically release the lock for you. -- .~.
