That kind of quick&dirty hack is fairly dangerous in the long run: as
they accumulate, they increase the risk that one of them will lead to
a completely unexpected behavior that nobody can predict/understand.

I have used that as a debugging device though: do the chattr and watch
the culprit screaming bloody murder in the logs.

Gives some amount of evil satisfaction ;-)

Chuckle, guilty Tomas, but NM has now been muffled and no longer yells at you via the logs when it find's a chattr +i denying its ability to impregnate the lassie.

So there is that.

Take care and stay well, Tomas
