Hmmmmm....

My Iomega zip disk works fine, for both read and write, except,

1.  as root if I chmod nothing happens.

# chmod 664 readme.txt
# ll
total 29506
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel      8399 Oct 31 10:34 calendar
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  30198060 Oct 31 13:06 piiijwgr.gz
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel      4079 Feb 15  1995 readme.txt  

2.  the files are being created as executables even though my umask sets
files, as root, as 644   

Suggestions welcomed.
Thanks
Jeff
