Hello Managers:

I am running into a problem of not been able to give
an execute permission to a particular file.

I am able to give a write and read permission, but not
execute permission.

Following in the output of the command prompt I pasted
in here:
------------------------------------------------
mmsweba:appmi_/abbrt/appmi> ls -lrt
total 24
drwxr-xr-x 2 appmi abbusers 8192 Oct 17 2002
bin
drwxr-xr-x 28 appmi abbusers 8192 Jul 13 03:07
run
drwxr-xr-x 4 appmi abbusers 8192 Aug 14 05:35
install
-rw-rw-rw- 1 appmi abbusers 0 Aug 17 06:10
y
-rw-rw-rw- 1 4701 abbusers 0 Aug 17 06:10
x
mmsweba:appmi_/abbrt/appmi> chmod 744 y
mmsweba:appmi_/abbrt/appmi> ls -lrt
total 24
drwxr-xr-x 2 appmi abbusers 8192 Oct 17 2002
bin
drwxr-xr-x 28 appmi abbusers 8192 Jul 13 03:07
run
drwxr-xr-x 4 appmi abbusers 8192 Aug 14 05:35
install
-rw-r--r-- 1 appmi abbusers 0 Aug 17 06:10
y
-rw-rw-rw- 1 4701 abbusers 0 Aug 17 06:10
x
mmsweba:appmi_/abbrt/appmi> chmod 755 y
mmsweba:appmi_/abbrt/appmi> ls -lrt
total 24
drwxr-xr-x 2 appmi abbusers 8192 Oct 17 2002
bin
drwxr-xr-x 28 appmi abbusers 8192 Jul 13 03:07
run
drwxr-xr-x 4 appmi abbusers 8192 Aug 14 05:35
install
-rw-r--r-- 1 appmi abbusers 0 Aug 17 06:10
y
-rw-rw-rw- 1 4701 abbusers 0 Aug 17 06:10
x
mmsweba:appmi_/abbrt/appmi>
----------------------------------------------------

I am the owner, i.e. appmi.
If I go the /abbrt directory and do a chmod on appmi,
I am able to do 777 on appmi, but inside appmi, I am
not able to do 777.

Thanks as always.

Praveen
