Hi, It seems yaffs2 is not honoring file permissions. Below always works # touch file # ls -l file -rw-r--r-- file # chmod u-w x # ls -l file -r--r--r-- file # echo 1 > file # cat file 1 # echo2 > file # cat file 2 Is there a way to set readonly permission on files ? -- Amol Sent from Bangalore, KA, India
