Greetings all, I'm an old Linux user (started with the TAMU 0.99 release) who got busy with life and kids, and lazy and ran RedHat. I'm switching to Debian to get back to my roots and have a few, probably brainless, questions. First on my list is that in RedHat the /etc/security/console.perms grants temporary ownership of the device files listed in it to the user logged on to X. So I'd set it up for the tty devs with my modem and palm pilot, the cd burner, the usb port for my Kodak camera, etc. At login the X user would become the owner of the listed devices, at logout, they would revert to the standard device owner. Is there a comparable mechanism in Debian?
