The permissions are not changed when a rename occurs. I'm calling chmod on the tempfile, but when the rename occurs the new files will have 644 mode. This is why I asked if it made sense to set the mode on your tempfiles and then just rename them. If you're trying to repair files with incorrect permissions, it might make sense to break that into a separate step. I.e. set the mode for the tempfiles before the rename, and then have a repair routine that you run in the few cases where users/depots have leftover bad permissions. Assuming that the software performing the chmod has the permissions to do so, of course. -j _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list pkg-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
