[OpenIndiana-discuss] Openindiana in VMWare and usb devices

[Gabriele Bulfon]

More infos: I compared the /var/adm/messages of a native OI and a virtual OI, these are the two logs:

Thanks, but this doesn't happen on native machine, just only inside VMWare.
Actually, yes, tip is suid uucp, but the device is rw to anyone by default:
crw-rw-rw-   1 root     sys       99, 131072 Jun 21 23:25 modem at 0,2:0,cu
and then linked to /dev/rmt/0

The device is present, and linked:
Does it look like this?
$ ll -L /dev/cua
total 0
crw-------   1 uucp     uucp     106, 131072 Jun 21 07:24 a
$ ll /usr/bin/tip
-r-s--x--x   1 uucp     bin        70980 Nov  5  2010 /usr/bin/tip
This is on Solaris 11 Express, but it shouldn't have changed.  `tip'
is supposed to be setuid uucp.  The device is supposed to be owned
by uucp.
