Morris" Subject: Date: error 14 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I installed Xwindows on friday and noticed on monday that when I typed #date I was getting "Permission Denied" When I examined the date binary I saw it was modified on friday about the same time I had done the install of XFree86.....and the permissions on date were -rw------- 1 root bin 81408 May 21 16:53 date Also the date binary was no longer an executable....there was no * next to it. So i did a #chmod +x date and changed the permissions to match all the others in /bin -r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin 81408 May 21 16:53 date BUT now when I do a #date I just get... date: error 14 Can anyone shed some light as to where I've screwed up here.
