Hejsa

Jeg har netop siddet med et underligt problem, som jeg fandt løsningen på
- så jeg vel lige så godt dele det med jer :)

Når man nu skal til at flytte data fra en gammel mac os 9 til en ny mac os
x, og har ændret uid på sin bruger, så det stemmer overens med uid'et på
unix systemet og kører 'chown' på filerne kommer den og siger "Operation
not permitted".

Grunden:

Since MacOS X is a hybrid of MacOS 9 and Unix it supports the Unix file
access flags _and_ the HFS lock flag.

So you can either set a file read-only by setting its Unix permissions or
by setting the HFS file lock.

Rettelsen:

To remove the MacOS lock from a file from inside a terminal you can use
the following command:

chflags nouchg <path>

mvh.

P.S. Og HUSK at give din bruger et uid > 500, da alt andet betragtes som
systemkonti og ikke fremgår af GUIet :(
