Today I have tried to reinstall communicator 4.51 on my slink/2.2.13 IPX.
The installation went fine. 
However, when I try to run netscape as root, all I get is:

As a plain user i get a "permission denied".
The permissions in the netscape subdir are weird:

It goes without saying that all this did not happen with slink/2.0.35.
I am sorry for the lenght of the mail, but I am completely stuck...
