Hi alltogether,

(I'm sorry to bother you with this but I could not find any clues yet)

Szenario:

   * a server exports shell scripts to clients with root_squash
   * these scripts have -rwx-r-x--x (root:root) rights (executable but 
not readable)

The clients are able to run these scripts with server kernel version 2.4.20.
Now we switched the server to 2.4.25 and get "permission denied" on 
execution.

As far as I comprehend file permissions this should never have worked?
But nobody ever noticed as long as it worked and the guy in charge says: 
"This was always a feature on VMS." :-P  

This assumption is confirmed by the fact that "su nobody -c 
/usr/local/sbin/mkclonediskremupdate" executed on the server does not 
work either.

Are these observations correct or am I missing something?

Sorry for the silly question.

Regards,

    Christopher
