The @ sign is something strange, that should have nothing to do with the disk being full or what so ever AFAIK. Have you been manually doing stuff on the command line perhaps?
What is the output of the following command on the command line interface when logged in as root:

Code: [Select]

df and

Code: [Select]

ls -la /home/e-smith/files/ibays

I do not see any @ in a folder name.
Why are the symlinks there? Is the target they are linked to mounted?

[raycheng]

thank again, the @ or * can only be seen when using mc & yes the newdisk/ibays/account is on a mounted drive. The only strange thing is that , the account folder can't access , but the other which are without @ sign hee and namecard are able to access normally . will it help if I forward the boot log to you?

Ah, ok, you were using midnight commander.

The only strange thing is that , the account folder can't access , but the other which are without @ sign hee and namecard are able to access normally .

Perhaps a privileges/onership problem? What is the output of

Code: [Select]

ls -la /mnt/newdisk/ibays/

will it help if I forward the boot log to you?

No I don't think we find any clues there as you mention that other folders on the mounted drive are accessible.

[raycheng]

I see that account folder is not root root , but root www, is that the problem? what can do ?

[root@sme1 ~]# ls -la /mnt/newdisk/ibays/

[cactus]

No I don't think so as it seems that the permissions are wrong (as well):

Code: [Select]

-rwxrw----  1 root  www          184320 May 20  2008 account

What happens after you do:

Code: [Select]

chmod 755 /mnt/newdisk/ibays/account

[raycheng]

[root@sme1 ~]# chmod 755 /mnt/newdisk/ibays/account
chmod: changing permissions of `/mnt/newdisk/ibays/account': Read-only file system

Hi

Hi 
any good new, for problem , thks

Sorry, I do not understand above. Could you perhaps clarify?

[raycheng]

thanks, I tried to chmod , below is result that the account folder is a Read only file system.

[root@sme1 ~]# chmod 755 /mnt/newdisk/ibays/account
chmod: changing permissions of `/mnt/newdisk/ibays/account': Read-only file system

[cactus]

thanks, I tried to chmod , below is result that the account folder is a Read only file system.

[root@sme1 ~]# chmod 755 /mnt/newdisk/ibays/account
chmod: changing permissions of `/mnt/newdisk/ibays/account': Read-only file system

And what when you retry it after this:

Code: [Select]

chown root:root /mnt/newdisk/ibays/account

[Stefano]

chmod: changing permissions of `/mnt/newdisk/ibays/account': Read-only file system

please.. post your fstab file and the result of

Code: [Select]

mount

ciao
