- This didn't work for me. I get the following error message:
-
- zsh: permission denied: /dev/cufa
-
- Permissions on /dev/cufa:
-
- crw------- 1 uucp wheel 11,224 Jan 2 13:00 /dev/cufa
-
- Permissions on /usr/local/bin/kermit:
-
- -rwsr-sr-x 1 uucp other 344064 Dec 6 12:19 /usr/local/bin/kermit*
-
- If I change ownership of /dev/cufa to 'john', it works, but that's an
- unacceptable solution since there are other users of the machine.
