Yep. As this is a very fresh setup system, I don't have any data
disks,
So I'm working on the system disk. And the default owner of all top
Level directories (like my [BUILD] directory) is [1,1], and not
SYSTEM...
I guess we could make configure.com set ownership, though that seems
pretty heavy-handed. Or perhaps just issue a warning if the directory
you're running configure.com in is not one you own. There must be an
easier way, but the following test is what I could come up with to
test for ownership of the current directory:
$ set def sys$manager
$ dirfile = f$parse("[]",,,"DIRECTORY") - (f
$parse("[-]",,,"DIRECTORY") - "]") - "]" - "[" - "." + ".DIR;1"
$ owner = f$file_attributes("[-]''dirfile'","UIC")
$ me = f$user()
$ if me .nes. owner then say "''me' is not the owner of ''dirfile',
''owner' is."
[CRAIG] is not the owner of SYSMGR.DIR;1, [SYSTEM] is.
