Francois, Others have reported a similar bug, in unionfs_setattr. I fixed and posted a patch for it a while back. Yesterday I released unionfs-2.5.3, which includes this fix formally. Please give this new release a try and let me know (via bugzilla please), if it's still broken. Thanks, Erez. _______________________________________________ unionfs mailing list: http://unionfs.filesystems.org/ unionfs@mail.fsl.cs.sunysb.edu http://www.fsl.cs.sunysb.edu/mailman/listinfo/unionfs
