Hi All, thought I was changing the permissions for /tftpboot in FC3 with chmod 711 . whilst in /tftpboot but, I think I typed ".." instead of ".". I was just, well, seeing what the different number sequences did. Guess I just found out the hard way. Can't even access via Knoppix3.7, knoppix@ttyp1[knoppix]$ cd /mnt/hda3 bash: cd: /mnt/hda3: Permission denied Am I stuffed. No hope..? Heck, what a way to learn something so simple/stupid. Cheers. Mark Sargent.
