Hi, I'm currently evaluating aufs for a project and ran into a problem with renaming sub-direcotries in a read-only directory of a branch if these directories contain any files (or other directories)
following configuration: - mount -v -t aufs -o br:/branch_rw=rw:/branch_ro=ro none /union - kernel 2.6.24 + aufs-20080129 - Using a Windows Client via Samba to access /union I can rename a sub-directory in a read-only directory if it does not contain any files or with if I remove the files before renaming the directory. example: mkdir -p /branch_ro/dir1/dir2 touch /branch_ro/dir1/dir2/file1 touch /branch_ro/dir1/dir2/file2 touch /branch_ro/dir1/dir2/file3 If I try to rename the directory dir2 to dir2.new I get an error 'permission denied' (The directory and files were created by the same user) If I remove the files file1, file2 and file3 and rename the directory dir2 afterwards it works just fine. any help is appreciated regards Andreas -- ** Besuchen Sie uns auf dem LinuxTag vom 28.-31.
