Due to an errant command during a security-tightening process, I have
a Solaris 8 box that has had all of the Other Write bits turned off
on the special files in /devices.
Is there a reasonably easy method to get Solaris to regenerate
/devices from scratch?
I've tried "touch /reconfigure and reboot" - no dice - doesn't seem
to regenerate something that's needed that's already there.
Suggestion: how about nuking /devices and /dev from a script as the
last thing the OS does on the way down then boot -r?
Any quick help appreciated -- we're about to reload the OS after two
days production-down. I'll summarize as necessary.
