Dear All,

I'm currently troubleshooting NetworkManger scripts.

I see a difference in machine A :

drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 apr 24 16:33 .
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 jan  9 12:13 ..
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  175 jan  9 12:13 00-netreport
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  335 okt 22  2012 04-iscsi
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  345 jan  9 12:13 05-netfs
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  926 sep 25  2012 10-dhclient
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  301 apr 24 15:58 20-backuplauncher
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  220 jun 22  2012 yum-NetworkManager-dispatcher

and machine B:

drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 apr 24 16:34 .
drwxr-xr-x. 5 root root 4096 apr 23 12:06 ..
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root  175 jan  9 12:13 00-netreport
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root  345 jan  9 12:13 05-netfs
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root  926 sep 25  2012 10-dhclient
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root  326 apr 23 13:42 15-nfslauncher
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root  307 apr 24 16:10 20-backuplauncher
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root  220 jun 22  2012 yum-NetworkManager-dispatcher

the difference being -rwxr-xr-x and -rwxr-xr-x.

so with or without a dot (.)

Does that mean anything?

Thanks for any advise on this.

Greetings, J.
