Please consider the following. /z is a CIFS (NetApp) share. 1.3.22:
~> cd /z /z> rm -f x /z> touch x /z> ls -l x -rw-r--r-- 1 josb mkpasswd 0 May 28 12:16 x /z> chmod -w x /z> ls -l x -r--r--r-- 1 josb mkpasswd 0 May 28 12:16 x 1.5.10: ~> cd /z /z> rm -f x /z> touch x /z> ls -l x -rw-r--r-- 1 josb mkpasswd 0 May 28 12:18 x /z> chmod -w x chmod: changing permissions of `x': Permission denied /z> ls -l x -rw-r--r-- 1 josb mkpasswd 0 May 28 12:18 x /z> It seems that chmod no longer works on network shares. How do I make it work again?
