AIX

Hi all,

here is a problem which took me completely off-guard. A user showed me the following terminal session (System is a p670 LPAR, OS is 5.1, ML 6):

Code:

(0)xf2 p015857 /data:find . -name "*.sh" 2>/dev/null
(1)xf2 p015857 /data:find ./bgdft -name "*.sh" 2>/dev/null
./bgdft/EPOOL/flam_decompress.sh
./bgdft/errdft.sh
./bgdft/fvdft.sh
./bgdft/nvdft.sh
./bgdft/olb_fvdft.sh
./bgdft/start.sh

He wants to find all shell-scripts in a specific subdirectory and including all subdirectories of it. As long as he looks directly in a specific subdirectory (where scripts are known to exist, as the second "find" shows) it works, but once he starts his search one directory-level higher (the first "find") he can't find anything.

All the "obvious" reasons like user rights, group rights, filemodes on directories/files I have tried already. I have also - you remember the last problem i wrote about, where the rights of a mountpoint affect the rights of a FS - checked the rights of the mountpoint, but to now avail.

I'd appreciate any suggestions, however far-fetched and can provide additional data upon request. Basically I have no idea what is going on and conseqently no idea which data might be useful.

Thanks for your effort

I finally managed to find the solution myself: The problem is the same as mentioned here. After umounting the filesystem, giving world read- and exec-access to the mountpoint and mounting again the problem didn't occur any more.
