Hi all
New poster here, but experienced linux user.
I’ve enabled ssh, and set up a new user, called “fred” with a private share.
And now I’ve run into this problem.
myownmachine$ ssh fred@bookworld
fred@bookworld's password:
~ $ pwd
/shares
~ $ cd fred
~/fred $ echo "hello" > temp.tmp
~/fred $ cat temp.tmp
hello
~/fred $ ls -l
-rwxrwxrwx 1 fred jewab 6 Oct 18 19:46 temp.tmp
~/fred $ echo "hello" >> temp.tmp
-sh: cannot create temp.tmp: Permission denied
And that’s just silly. There’s no reason why that should not work. If I can create the file (and overwrite it) I should be able to append to it.
I’ve also written a little perl script to do the same - and I get the same problem.
Don’t get the problem as root.
I DO get the problem on the Public drive.
I don’t get it in the /tmp directory.
Can anyone help? Can someone at least show me that this does work on a “white light” mybook world edition?
Thanks.
