I know little of immutable. Is that file system depenedent? Seems like I see that mentioned in the man pages as "second extended file system" -- I'm running XFS so I'm not clear if that possible. Also chattr(1) says: A file with the `i' attribute cannot be modified: it cannot be deleted or renamed, no link can be created to this file and no data can be written to the file. Only the superuser or a process possessing the CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE capability can set or clear this attribute. So does that mean root can change it? -- Bill Moseley [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
