Message-ID: <10440@baldrick.udel.EDU> Date: 7 Feb 90 20:24:30 GMT Sender: mmdf@udel.EDU Lines: 16 Here's a weird situation. I've got several scripts for Vlt that log me into the various mainframes around here. Since they contain my password I decided to make them unreadable, undeletable and hidden! However after I set the protection bits and I issued a list command, the files showed up even though their bits said: hs----- Not only that I can still read and edit them as before. So whatsamatta here? Does something else have to be done in order to make them unaccessable? Help. Bin
