I've been experiencing permission errors with make intermittently. It's = happening with quite a few users on the box but it's just random. It's = never a certain application or a certain user/group so it's been very = hard to pinpoint what the problem is, hence why I'm posting here. What is happening is basically a user will untar a file and type "make" = after a ./configure and get "make: Permission denied". When I first = encountered this I believe I chmod -R 777 * in the directory that the = file was untared in and that worked for me, but for some of my users who = are less experienced with freeBSD won't know how and don't know how to = resolve this and it shouldn't be happening in the first place. Other = users say they have gotten the error and simply logged out and back in = and resolved it. Anyone have any ideas what is causing this and how to fix it? Thanks -Brad
