Hi everyone,

	I am attempting to get masterplan working under FreeBSD but have 
been unsuccessful so I emailed the author and was told that FreeBSD 
doesn't allow named pipes to be created.  Can anyone confirm this and 
know what I can do to get masterplan working?  Thanks..

Cheers,

I don't think that FreeBSD allows named pipes to be created. I know that NetBSD does though...

Hi there,

	I am trying to install Masterplan 1.00 under FreeBSD but am 
having a problem as this is what happens when I run masterplan -d

vince@apollo [3:16pm][~] >> masterplan -d
masterplan: mknod(/tmp/.masterplan.pipe.vince-.plan): Operation not permitted

	Any ideas what's wrong?

	Also, as root user, do I need to run masterplan -d for each 
individual user or will one background process work for everyone?  Thanks 
again and Have a nice labor day!
