S_IMMUTABLE flag is set on an inode, ext3 does not propagate it to its inode flags on write. This also leads to the situation that lsattr reports no flag set but the file is in fact immutable. Would a fix be accepted? Actually, the quota code is the only place where S_IMMUTABLE flag is set to an inode so this is not a big issue but still... Honza -- Jan Kara SuSE CR Labs
