Yes, so you've said, and my post didn't doubt that in any way. I'm of course highly intrigued by what high-falutin' mystery system you might be working on. > Please continue to give constructive advice so that I can resolve this issue. That's pretty rich considering it's taken repeated prompting to get answers to rather straightforward questions. Anyway, now that the case-sensitivity issue seems to have been ruled out, let's go back to an earlier post in this thread: Corinna Vinschen: >>what would cause >> >> open(".new.p_change.pl", O_WRONLY | O_CREAT | O_TRUNC, 0777) >> >> to fail with errno set to ENOENT. > >Just as in Linux: > >ENOENT O_CREAT is not set and the named file does not exist. Or, a > directory component in pathname does not exist or is a dangling > symbolic link. The way I understand this, the open() call shouldn't fail with ENOENT given those arguments, because O_CREAT is set and there is no directory component in the pathname.
