Re: IFS Permissions

[Jon Paris <jon.paris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The 2755 directories show up like this:

 drwxr-sr-x  12 SIDBLOG   0                 77824 Feb 25 12:54 wp-includes

The 2777 ones as:

drwxrwsrwx   9 SIDBLOG   0                 40960 Feb 25 12:52 wp-admin

I think Scott has come up with the answer though - this is an IBM i specific thing and should have no impact.  It is triggering warnings in a Wordpress plugin because it is looking for 755 and these numbers are clearly too big!

Sadly - although it is great to know - it means that one possible cause of our Wordpress problems (permissions) is a dead end so we are still no closer to a solution.
