Hi, I found a bug (or say lack of functionality) in chmod. I tried to change the permission of a file (normal .txt file) owned by root using:
sudo chmod -x file.txt It returned silent prompt but the file permissions were unchanged. I tried the same with logging in as root and again hit: chmod -x file.txt Again the shell returned silent prompt, but the permissions were unchanged. I think there is some issues within the kernel. If you know anything relevant please reply. -- Regards Nikhil Vidhani Indian Institute of Science Bangalore, India
