Thanks for the response. A. Expected behavior. Of course the OS should not let you create new files owned by another user. -- Ed <Playing Samurai Shodown IV> http://blog.eonsec.com/
>> Sir Ed, there's an existing script that the application team used to gzip the file (owned by user1) and ran by user2. It went well before but not until lately. They're looking for the explanation. >> Also, application team does not want to change any part of the script. So I gues, tar and cpio are not the options. :) TIA _________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [email protected] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Read the Guidelines: http://linux.org.ph/lists Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
