1799.0. "V6.1x: Bug readonly file from NT" by EVTAI1::CASTELLO (UNIX and PCI Support) Thu Mar 27 1997 15:25

Hello,

Here is another (new) BUG with Pathworks Unix V6.1x.

Read-only tree files from NT (3.51, 4.0) cannot be copied 
into Pathworks shares.
At the beginning the dirname is created into pwks share and keeps its original
right access (read-only) then the first file of the dir cannot be copied into
because the parent dir is read-only.....:-(
From WIN95 no problem.
Typically arrives when you want to copy files from CDROM (of your NT machine)
to Pathworks Server and in this case we can't reset attribut on source files.

Tested with ECO1,ECO2,V6.1a

Time for IPMT any volunter ?

This is already qar'd.  In a native Microsoft environment, the read only 
attibute prevents a file from being edited or deleted, but does not
prevent it from being copied.  It looks like the problem is with the
lanman.ini parameter unixdirchk.  This parameter should allow clients to
write to unix system directories that do not have write permissions.  The
default is 1.  1 = allows writing to directories belonging to or created by
PW as determined by the DOS-??? group ownership.

Qar #923.
