i'm using sco openserver 5.05
when i type ls -ld /*
to see what the permissions are for all the directory's i can't see if a
directory has the sticky bit set.

i can only see for instance drwxrwxrwx
and not if the sticky bit is set

but when i use midnight commander and look at the file permissions i can see
that the sticky bit is set.

Who can help me with this ?

thanks

Frank Eggink

 
ls -ld /tmp is a good example; it should look something like this:

[tt]drwxrwxrwt 3 sys sys 1024 Jan 2 22:05 /tmp[/tt]

The 't' on the end of the permissions signifies the sticky bit. Annihilannic.
