I am experiencing the strangest problem. Performing `chmod g+w`on a directory causes a script inside it not to execute anymore.
See: 20:48:31 markus ~/test>echo $USER markus 20:48:32 markus ~>pwd /home/markus 20:48:34 markus ~>l | grep test drwxr-xr-x 2 root users 4096 May 29 20:44 test/ 20:48:37 markus ~>cd test/ 20:48:38 markus ~/test>l total 4 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 24 May 29 20:44 myTest* 20:48:40 markus ~/test>cat myTest #!/bin/sh echo testing 20:48:41 markus ~/test>./myTest testing 20:48:43 markus ~/test> So we see that the script is working. I then perform the change logged in as root. Therafter I try executing the script again (still as user markus): 20:50:00 markus ~/test>echo $USER markus 20:50:02 markus ~/test>l .. | grep test drwxrwxr-x 2 root users 4096 May 29 20:44 test/ 20:50:12 markus ~/test>./myTest ./myTest: Permission denied. Is there a workaround? The contents of my /etc/fstab is: 20:51:31 markus ~>cat /etc/fstab /dev/hda1 / ext3 defaults 1 1 none /dev/pts devpts mode=0620 0 0 /dev/hda7 /home ext3 defaults 1 2 /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom auto user,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850,noauto,ro,exec 0 0 /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom2 auto user,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850,noauto,ro,exec 0 0 /dev/hda8 /mnt/film ext3 defaults 1 2 /dev/hdb1 /mnt/film2 ext3 defaults 1 2 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto user,iocharset=iso8859-1,sync,codepage=850,noauto,exec 0 0 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/hda6 /usr ext3 defaults 1 2 /dev/hda5 swap swap defaults 0 0 20:51:32 markus ~> Mvh, Markus _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
