i had a wierd problem - root had lost the rootly powers to list, cd into and delete directories owned by non-root users.
there were a bunch of very good suggestions, but none of them worked. i figured out what happened. the kernel on that machine was a late 2.5 kernel. after rebooting into an earlier 2.4 kernel, the problem disappeared. my guess is that fileutils or libc on that machine needs to be updated for the 2.5 kernels. everything is cool now. pete "i forgot what kernel i was running" salzman _______________________________________________ vox-tech mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
