Hi, I observed the following behavior concerning the readability of directory content that I don't understand. This occurred on both Solaris releases with UFS filesystems.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/a$ uname -a SunOS azalin 5.10 Generic_118833-33 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Blade-2500 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/a$ id uid=1000(thomas) gid=1000(thomas) [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/a$ ls -ld chris drwx------ 2 chris chris 512 Jan 4 21:04 chris/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/a$ ls -l chris ls: chris/a: Permission denied total 0 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/tmp$ uname -a SunOS grima 5.8 Generic_117350-43 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-60 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/tmp$ id uid=1000(thomas) gid=1000(thomas) [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/tmp$ ls -ld chris drwx------ 2 chris chris 512 Jan 4 20:51 chris/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/tmp$ ls -l chris ls: chris: Permission denied As you can see, ls lists the name of files within the directory which is neither readable nor executable by the user calling ls... Can anybody explain this change in behavior?
