Do you have root authority to set the owner:group? 777 strikes me as an unusual mode for a "Unix Char file in /var.." Indeed, for any file in /var. "cp" nowadays has so many z/OS-peculiar options nowadays that I can't understand most of the manual chapter. But I see one contradiction and one pleonasm that merit RCFs. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
