A very late summary....no time before to write it. So, I wasn't the first guy to encounter this kind of magic chmod ! G.Hackett suggest: ----- You could write a wrapper script for chmod by moving chmod to chmod.sav and then put the folllowing lines in the file chmod #!/bin/sh who am i > /chmod_monitor exec $0.sav $@ Then make chmod executable. ------ ....this can't trap every inode modifications, but permits to exclude humans or scripts. Pavan Hotha wrote me about a similar issue...was Virus Scanner which scans samba shares and change permissions. SreenivasaRao Vadalasetty reports the same experience. I haven't any wintel machine with a virus scanner....but....hey ! what about my NFS shares ? So, I remove "root=xxx" in /etc/dfs/dfstab and reshare all. Problem solved ! One of my Linux box change permissions on remote shares ! I can't say which one (I've got some RH and Mdk) but they did ! Thanks for all their replies to: Pascal Grostabussiat Mr Rene Occelli joe.fletcher JULIAN, JOHN C G Hackett Pavan Hotha SreenivasaRao Vadalasetty _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagersReceived on Tue Apr 22 20:18:41 2003
