Hi Steve,
here are the permission:
[mario at behn ~]$ ll -h /dev/ttyUSB0
crwxrwxrwx 1 root uucp 188, 0 Jul 11 05:15 /dev/ttyUSB0
[mario at behn ~]$
and ntp should run as:
(/etc/sysconfig/ntpd)
# Drop root to id 'ntp:ntp' by default. Requires kernel >= 2.2.18.
OPTIONS="-u ntp:ntp -p /var/run/ntpd.pid"
#OPTIONS="-u root:root -p /var/run/ntpd.pid"
shouldn't this work?
Any further ideas?
Thanks
Mario
