yepp - do not use fat32. ;-) i guess it's related to the fact that fat filesystems don't really have permissions. when you mount a fat partition, all the files are given the *same* file permissions at mount time. furthermore, once mounted, those permissions cannot be modified. i guess it has something to do with that. cheers, andre -- mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | failed! http://www.iomc.de
