Two things come to mind: first of all bug #6750 (see http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/6750) - while the ticket already contains a solution, you could rework it as suggested, and check the other file systems as well. The BFS file system source can be find below src/add-ons/kernel/file_systems/bfs/. The other thing would be a bug that's probably not yet tracked: when you're in a Terminal, create a test file, and then use "chmod <myusername> <testfile>", and afterwards a "ls -l" you'll see that strange numbers appear instead of the actual name. That is a bug that's worth looking into it :-) HTH, Bye, Axel.
