I think to "cd" into a subdirectory, the user must have "execute" permission as well as read. "Execute" on a directory means that you can do a "readdir" to scan the directory. Write should only be needed to create new or delete old files. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its content is protected by law.
