I have the following in my /etc/fstab (as per hpa's suggestion):
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=0620 1 2
Then I have the following:
avatar@ulf:~[0 ls -l /dev/ptmx crw-rw-rw- 1 avatar bofh 5, 2 Aug 8 04:37 /dev/ptmx
and:
avatar@ulf:~[0 ls -ld /dev/pts/ drwxr-xr-x 2 avatar bofh 0 Aug 16 13:55 /dev/pts//
So far nothing seems to be using it, I'm on a glibc system but I think I just don't have anything that uses them yet. (hpa, if you're reading this, are the perms ok? Should some of the gids be group tty? (avatar == bofh == 0 in the above cases BTW)) Mike -- "You'd be fools to ignore the boolean anti-binary least-square approach!"
