After installing IBM i Access 6.1 service pack SI42423, users are unable to modify the permissions in the IFS root file system, QOpenSys, home and many others. It still works in file system QDLS and QSYS.LIB. When you open permissions on a directory, subdirectory or file and click on an unchecked box (eg "write") the check mark is NOT set. When you click on a box which is checked (eg "read") the check mark is NOT removed. To recreate: 1. Open System i Navigator 2. Expand "File Systems" --> "Integrated File Systems" --> "Root" 3. Right click or expand one of the file systems (not QDLS or QSYS.LIB). 4. When you right click on "home" and select permissions, the permissions window is opened. 5. Click on any unchecked box for any user. You may temporarily see a check mark, but it does not remain checked. This can be done with any sub directory or file in the directory. 6. Click on any box having a check mark, it will not be removed. ------------------------------------------------------------------- 2.0 INSTALLATION NOTES ------------------------------------------------------------------- 2.1 Applying the patch ----------------------------------------------------- Perform the following steps on your PC: 1) Close System i Navigator if it's running. 2) Enter the installation directory of IBM i Access for Windows.
