^^^^^^^^^^^^^^NTFS is a notoriously difficult file system (not as bad as FAT, but still not POSIX compliant). The fact that your Linux kernel file system driver doesn't support setting executable bits (or at least not reporting them) is not a bug in coreutils, but a limitation of your kernel driver. If you want anything to change, you'll have to report it to the kernel folks. As such, I'm closing this as not a coreutils bug; there's nothing we can do about it here. However, do feel free to ask further questions on this thread, as needed. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
