I used to change permission of windows pertition withchmod command,After Iinstalled Windows 2000,I am not able to change windows directory with chmod command.why?
you can *never* change windows permissions with chmod as windows doesn't use posix compliant filesystems, so has nowhere to read from and store the information you're interested in. instead you'd use the umask options in the mount command, which affect ALL files on that partition.
