Hi Dave, I mount a partion read-only: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ mount ... /dev/mapper/vg_multimedia-lvol0 on /opt/Multimedia type jfs (ro,errors=remount-ro)
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -l /opt/Multimedia/ ... drwxrwx--- 15 mm mueller 4096 2006-04-15 10:53 Filme ... [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -l /opt/Multimedia/Filme/ ... drwxr-xr-x 4 mm mueller 16 2005-09-30 19:11 dvdrip When I used the read-only mount option the first time I was surprised that the 'w' still exists. Otherwise I was lucky with that because copies to other drives have 'w' without any change. But I'm using the program dvd::rip and that tells that the directory /opt/Multimedia/Filme/dvdrip/ on this partition is writable. I asked in the dvd::rip mailing list and was told that it uses perl to determine if a directory is writable. I got the following perl command that is similar to the one used in the program: perl -e 'my $dir="/opt/Multimedia/Filme/dvdrip/"; -d $dir && -w $dir && print "writable\n"' and it reports "writable". Now the question is if it is a perl or a JFS problem. I have no free partition to check it with different read-only mounted filesystems to find out if JFS behaves the same. Thanks for your help.
