dcam: Please read the spec a little closer: "File Entry" as defined in 4/14.9 applies to "File Types" 0, and 4-10. Following the spec back to 4/14.6.6, you discover that file type #4 is a directory, and #5 is a generic file. Types #6 through #10 are other well-understood *nixy items.
In any case, note #27, which immediately follows the permissions description in 4/14.9.5, clearly leaves discretion in the hands of the implementor, even to not implementing these at all. Its hardly surprising that linux implements these permissions as is traditional. In any case, the new dmode mount option in 2.6.30 (noted above) is a working solution, if you're willing to try an rc kernel. Or apply the patches to 2.6.29. -- DVDs with restrictive permissions are unreadable for normal user https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/10550 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
