I log in from 2 locations - my laptop and desktop. Directory listings and chmod work as expected on the desktop but when I try to do a chmod on the laptop, it fails for the user's permissions, leaving them blank, but appears to work for group and other. When I get a directory listing, it shows for each file "Unknown+User Unknown+Group" while on the desktop the same files show my user name that I logged in with and "Domain Users" as the group. It also shows as unknown if I create a file on the laptop. After googling around for an answer to the issue, I came up dry with regards to chmod though I did find a way to change permissions using setfacl. Does anyone know how to get chmod working the way it should?
