Definitely not mounted with short file names, and there aren't any non-ASCIIs in the file names; in both cases I imagine that the file wouldn't run at all. In this case, however, the file does run, and open a socket, it just can't seem to receive connections on it. I have tried running the file as su, with no success. The FAT dirs are mounted with the following options: defaults,user,umask=000 . I'm not sure what you mean by the execute bit, but all files do have execute permission. Here's the output of an ls -l on the file I'm talking about: -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 1073 2005-07-15 21:40 /d/download/cherrypy/tutorial/tut01_helloworld.py Any other ideas?
