From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: "D.A.M. Revok" Subject: bug report: attributes ( chattr +a ) not respected by reiserfs 3,6, but this isn't listed in man mkreiserfs Date: Sat, 12 Jul 2003 10:10:07 -0400 Message-ID: <200307121010.07215.marvin@synapse.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Return-path: list-help: list-unsubscribe: list-post: Errors-To: flx@namesys.com Content-Disposition: inline List-Id: Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" To: info@suse.com, reiserfs-list@namesys.com Please declare this in man .*reiser.* ( and also in the --help listings for 'em ), since it is kind of important to know *when* one is setting-up a filesystem ( rather than after the system's been built... ) so that no others will try setting chattr +a logfile to make it append-only, as part of system-security, because the attribute set is non-meaningful. ext3 respects this attribute. This on SuSE 8.1 Pro and 8.2 Pro's kernel, maybe the stock kernel has it working, but I figure it'd be better to tell you people and let youse sort-it-out. Thanks for a delightfully fast filesystem, though, eh? : ) -- http://www.drawright.com/ - "The New Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain" ( Betty Edwards, check "Theory", "Gallery", and "Exercises" ) http://www.ldonline.org/ld_indepth/iep/seven_habits.html - "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" ( this site is same principles as Covey's book ) http://www.eiconsortium.org/research/ei_theory_performance.htm - "Working With Emotional Intelligence" ( Goleman: this link is /revised/ theory, "Working. . .
