What is the Interix Subsystem trying to say me by that (event log):

Interix/Posix subsystem status: PSXSS: Startup could not create security
file (0xc0000022), exiting.

A fatal condition has occurred during subsystem startup. The condition is
PSXSS initialization failed and the status code is 0xc0000022

?

Your /var/adm/.security file is trashed or is in a bad
state due to some manual intervention. Hence, all the
character special and device special files will stop
working. To avoid this mess, the Interix subsystem has not
started logging this message.

To fix this problem, please use /usr/sbin/makedev.

Hello Gaurav,

I know this is very very late. But if you still see this comment, would it be possible for you to explain this a little more in details? We work on Windows servers and not sure about how these WSFU apps work and unfortunately we are coming across the same error in our servers.

I do see a makedev files in our servers, but unsure about what needs to be done.
