I have several hard drives. All of the drives and enclosing folders have been set with the following permissions ... --- owner = system access = read and write group = admin access = read and write others = read only - ignore ownership on this volume = unchecked --- - for some reason one of my drives is not using permissions correctly. Even know I reset all the permissions ( and copy permissions to enclosed folders) for the drive as above several times - it has the following problems ... - every new folder I create uses a different permissions set up from what is listed above... - if I tried to delete a folder on the drive - it says it will be deleted immediately - rather than putting it in the trash... - this is just a dated Drive - there is no system on it. - I ran disk utility on the drive - repair disk - but it did not help. * Question: How can I fix this? What is going on? I sure would hate to reformat the drive... -- Thanks - RevDave CoolCat at hosting4days.com [db-lists]
