    Hi all,

    I have a directory /local/bin with permission;

    oracle@localhost $ ls -ld /local/bin
    drwxr-xr-x 15 root sys 512 Nov 18 10:26 /local/bin

    oracle@localhost $ ls -ld /local
    drwxr-xr-x 22 root system 512 Nov 14 10:04 /local

    The weird thing is, i can issue pwd command and it will return /local/bin;
    but when i issue /bin/pwd or /usr/bin/pwd; it will complains ;

    oracle@localhost $ /usr/bin/pwd
    pwd: The file access permissions do not allow the specified action.

    oracle@localhost $ /bin/pwd
    pwd: The file access permissions do not allow the specified action.

    oracle@localhost $ pwd
    /local/bin/oracle

    oracle@localhost $ which pwd
    /usr/bin/pwd

    The question is, why i can't use full pathname command to check my current directory?

    oracle@localhost $ aclget /local
    attributes:
    base permissions
        owner(root): rwx
        group(system): r-x
        others: r-x
    extended permissions
        disabled

    oracle@localhost $ aclget /local/bin
    attributes:
    base permissions
        owner(root): rwx
        group(sys): r-x
        others: r-x
    extended permissions
        disabled

    oracle@localhost $ oslevel -r
