Can't CD to lib ??? why
Hi,

I have root access and user name called prod. but it doesn't matter which user I log in as. But I can't CD to the directory. Can you advise.

Code:
 
dr-xr-xr-x   1 root     root           1 Sep 12 15:40 lib
 
[prod@newd1 ilx]$id
uid=4902(prod) gid=50(develop)

[prod@newd1 ilx]$cd lib
-bash: cd: lib: Permission denied

 
newd1> id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root)
 
newd1> cd lib
-bash: cd: lib: Permission denied

That is really strange! Can you try changing directory by inode instead?

Get inode:
Code:
ls -il
918527 drwxr-xr-x 2 yoda yoda 96 Dec  3 07:28 lib

Change dir by inode:
Code:
cd $( find -inum 918527 )

Can you show us the output from:-
Code:
ls -ld lib

.... and to check if there is an ACL in play, can you show us that too. It's most likely to be:-
Code:
getacl lib



Do you have any security functions switched on, such as SELinux or 'Unicenter' from Computer Associates?

Is there anything in the system logs? You will have to read /etc/syslog.conf or /etc/rsyslog.conf to find out where they are written.



Thanks, in advance,

Thanks for your help. Still not working.

Code:
 
newd1> ls -il lib
lib: Permission denied
total 1

newd1> id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) 
 
newd1> uname -a
SunOS newd1 5.10 Generic_142909-17 sun4u sparc SUNW,Netra-T12

newd1> ls -ld lib
dr-xr-xr-x   1 root     root           1 Sep 12 15:40 lib

newd1> getacl lib
-bash: getacl: command not found

newd1> which getacl
no getacl in /opt/csw/bin /opt/csw/gcc3/bin /usr/local/bin /usr/bin /bin /usr/sbin /sbin /usr/local/java/bin /usr/sfw/bin /usr/openwin/bin /usr/dt/bin /usr/ccs/bin /opt/studio11/bin /opt/SUNWspro6/bin /usr/sbin /usr/bin .

I didn't see any errors undder /var/adm/messages. I don't have rsyslog.conf. I do have /etc/syslog.conf. Looks normal, to me, I didn't see anything new.

Well, that's confusing. How about:-
Code:
ls -ld `pwd`

I'm not sure where on Solaris (assuming that's what you are using because you are on a Sparc) the getacl command is.

As for system messages, the /etc/syslog.conf is the config file, so you would need to look at where messages are being written to as defined there. Can you show us the output of:-
Code:
grep -v "^#" /etc/syslog.conf

.... and then we can direct you which log files to look in.



Thanks,
Robin

Robin, Thank you for your advise. I think I know what's going on here. This directory is on local and part of on the NFS drive. Very confusing.

when they mount the file system, it came as Read only, so that's why I ran into all those issues. But error message never came as it was read only file system.

Code:
 
fryer:/vol/vol0/ilx/ilx/src
                       1.1T   884G   264G    78%    /ilx/src
dryer:/vol/vol1/solaris/10/sparc/local
                       813G   691G   122G    85%    /usr/local
