Well, it's writing to the same directory in both cases, but the ACLs are: $ getfacl.exe /c/Documents\ and\ Settings/All\ Users/Desktop/ # file: /c/Documents and Settings/All Users/Desktop/ # owner: Administrator # group: None user::rwx group::rwx group:Users:r-x group:Power Users:rwx mask::rwx other::r-x default:user::--- default:group::--- default:group:Users:--- default:group:Power Users:rwx default:mask::--- default:other::--- Or did you mean the ACLs on /bin and /usr/src...? Those look identical. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
