Subject: Bug#24990: nfs, permission, konqueror
X-MARC-Message: https://marc.info/?l=kfm-devel&m=98863685714265

Package: konqueror
Version: KDE 2.1.1 
Severity: normal
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
Compiler:          gcc 2.95.2
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Kernel 2.4.4

Konqueror doesn't show an error message, 
if "root" tries to change permissions on a 
NFS mounted directory and this fails. The 
user "root" cannot change permissions, if the 
NFS server has set the option 
"root_squash" (default) for an exported share.

Because it's probably not visible for the NFS 
client, if the server has set the "root_squash" 
option (see man 5 exports) I suggest, that 
Konqueror should show an error, if the 
permissions cannot be changed.
