hi there, i think the following example shows the problem better than a long explanation:
`touch ftest && chflags arch ftest && chflags -vv 0 ftest`. ^^non-root ^^root ^^non-root chflags claims to have cleared the 'arch' flag (which should be impossible as non-root user), but indeed has done nothing. i've tried the same with 'sappnd' and that works as can be expected. The issue was confirmed to exist in HEAD (me), stable/8 (pgollucc1, jpaetzel) and stable/7 (nox). On stable/6 it does NOT exist (jpaetzel). chflags properly fails with EPERM. cheers. alex -- a13x _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
