Are these servers essentially mirrors of each other? How do you synchronize files from the dev to the production environment? Are they identical hardware? Have you benchmarked the IO performance of each? Are there any host/ or network/ specific commands in the script?

When most of the server applications get installed, they create their own user. I believe this is to not use the "root" account. For example, Apache when installed creates a user called "apache". And the directories which it uses are all owned by this user. This seems to be the... (2 Replies)

MAKEDEV(8) System Manager's Manual MAKEDEV(8)
NAME
makedev - make system special files
SYNOPSIS
/dev/MAKEDEV device...
DESCRIPTION
MAKEDEV is a shell script normally used to install special files. It resides in the /dev directory, as this is the normal location of spe-
cial files. Arguments to MAKEDEV are usually of the form device-name? where device-name is one of the supported devices listed in section
4 of the manual and ``?'' is a logical unit number (0-9). A few special arguments create assorted collections of devices and are listed
below.
std Create the standard devices for the system; e.g. /dev/console, /dev/tty. The VAX-11/780 console floppy device, /dev/floppy, and
VAX-11/750 and VAX-11/730 console cassette device(s), /dev/tu?, are also created with this entry.
local Create those devices specific to the local site. This request causes the shell file /dev/MAKEDEV.local to be executed. Site spe-
cific commands, such as those used to setup dialup lines as ``ttyd?'' should be included in this file.
Since all devices are created using mknod(8), this shell script is useful only to the super-user.
DIAGNOSTICS
Either self-explanatory, or generated by one of the programs called from the script. Use ``sh -x MAKEDEV'' in case of trouble.
