Hello Dave,

Good News - it works perfect now!
Many, many THANKS!

Sorry for my recent e-mails reporting problems - it was my fault, I am not yet
so familiar with Linux and SUSE 10.0 (did not know that modules are compiled in 
two steps).
Moreover I now found that in the sources /jfs directory there also is a 
MAKEFILE, so
I could have called just 'make' also from that place to just compile jfs.
(next time I'll not have to wait for over 1 hour for output;-)

Your new features seem to work as predicted (and asked by me) including the
execute-bit for directories if only read-acces is allowed.

One thing however is worth to be mentioned:
the options for 'mount' must place umask=x first, before you can use uid=y and 
gid=z.
This appears logically, because when no access-bits are set, only root may do 
this.
So if no umask= is given, uid= and gid= are refused as parameters - you only 
have to know!
My FSTAB now specifies following options (for me myself as owner belonging to 
users-group):

noauto,user,umask=013,uid=1000,gid=100

I'll stress the filesystem this weekend and see if all runs smoothly (I am 
quite sure it will)
and report everything also to the JFS-discussin group.

Many, many thanks and have a nice weekend,
Ingo
