Hi Folks, I have successfully installed my parallel Zip Drive. I can mount it and "cd" to it, write to it, but am unable to execute a program. The following is my setup: ~>ls -l / drwxrwxr-x root root mnt ~>ls -l /mnt drwxrwxr-x clay users zip1 ~>ls -l /mnt/zip1 drwxr-xr-x clay users SP ~>ls -l /mnt/zip1 drwxr-xr-x clay users l01 ~>ls -l /mnt/zip1/l01 -rwxr-xr-x clay users ex01.01 ~>ls -l /mnt/zip1/l01/ex01.01 bash: /mnt/zip1/l01/ex01.01: Permission denied I can copy the ex01.01 program to my home directory and it functions fine. I have read the man pages fs, fsck.ext2, e2fsck and they show no solution to this problem. Any help would be appreciated. TIA Clay Stapleton
