Why is it that when I create a directory on one machine an 's' is added to the permissions? Ex. drwxr-sr-x 2 sam sam 4096 Apr 24 05:17 test drwxr-sr-x 2 root root 4096 Apr 24 05:18 test2 while on another machine this is not the case. I compared /etc/skel files and there the same. what's wrong? thanks, justin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-request@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
