Managers, especially those with internals and/or security knowlege:
As a guru in training, I am at a loss here and need advice.
We are installing ORACLE Application Server V4 and encountered an error
during the orainst process.
ORACLE tech support has responded that we need to execute "mknod
/dev/timedev c 15 0" to create a device special file for direct access to
the realtime clock. I have tried to confirm that major-number 15 is indeed
the realtime clock, but without success so far. The mknod man page refers
to conf.c but there is mo mention of realtime clock in there.
Is this legit? Could it cause a security breach? Any other issues I
should be aware of?
TIA!
