I happen to have an old box around so that I could compare your
test results:
$ uname -sr
FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE
$ echo readme > try_read_me
$ chmod 0333 try_read_me
$ cat try_read_me
cat: try_read_me: Permission denied
I can't duplicate the behavior that you are seeing. It may be
a local issue. Do the permissions actually end up as:
--wx-wx-wx 1 rpratt rpratt 7 Jun 14 13:00 try_read_me
Only root can read that file as the permissions are. An ordinary
user should not be able to read it. Are you perhaps testing as
root?
I see the same correct behavior on 4.10-STABLE too.
Best regards,
Randy
