:Hi,
:
:It doesn't seem to be possible to assign permissions
:(like 1777 for /tmp) to pseudo-filesystems:
:
:   hammer pfs-master /tmp
:   chmod 1777 /tmp
:   ls -la /tmp
:   # still shows "lrwxr-xr-x" for /tmp
:
:Regards,

    Softlinks have traditionally had this problem.

    I think what we really need to do is make PFS's mountable with the
    mount command.

    There is a workaround... use mount_null to mount the PFS:

    mount_null /pfs1 /tmp
    cd /tmp
    chmod 1777 /tmp
