List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Hi all, When untarring files over an NFS mounted filesystem (client and server both 2.4.18 vanilla), tar prints errors like "Cannot change mode to rwxr-xr-x". When I run strace on tar, it prints this message: ---- utime("Documentation/", [2002/06/22-17:11:43, 2002/06/20-19:29:20]) = 72 chmod("Documentation/", 0755) = 72 write(2, "tar: ", 5tar: ) = 5 write(2, "Documentation/: Cannot change mo"..., 47Documentation/: Cannot change mode to rwxr-xr-x) = 47 write(2, "\n", 1 ---- Now, the return value from utime and chmod are 72, but the man page doesn't say anything about them ... Any clues? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
