I'm trying to view some man pages on my suse 8.0 box. I get the following error message : man: can't resolve /usr/share/man/man1/tar.1.gz: Permission denied No manual entry for tar. this is on my box at work but at home it works. anyone else had this problem. thanks jack
Someone the other day pointed out they had the wrong permissions on the /usr/share/man/man1 directory, try running (as root): chmod +rx /usr/share/man chmod +rx /usr/share/man/man1 Ewan On Fri, 2002-05-31 at 01:15, jack malone wrote:
