Message-ID: <CDoHIv.Jq8@unix.portal.com> Sender: news@unix.portal.com Nntp-Posting-Host: jobe.unix.portal.com Organization: Portal Communications Company X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL1] Date: Tue, 21 Sep 1993 00:32:52 GMT Lines: 19 Is it correct that mkfifo is not supported on FreeBSD ? When I type 'mkfifo foo' I get a message which says: mkfifo: foo: Operation not supported I tried to recompile the kernel with option FIFO, but got a lot of undeclared fifo_* in kern/fifo_vnops.c file. Any suggestion to get around ? Thanks. C. Ding -- Chris Ding chris@portal.shell.com
