rename a file in filePro utilities menu

[Dennis Malen]

This is my rename. Seems to be OK:
-rwsr-xr-x    1 root     sys            2857 Dec 02 2005  rename

There seems to be a bug when trying to rename only. Copy works fine. It
appears other filepro users have the same problem. Rename never worked for
me from day1. Never had a problem with copy.

Dennis,

Check the perms on ~/fp/lib/rename

If the long listing of the file doesn't show like so (ignoring size & date):

-rwsr-xr-x   1 root     sys          716 Mar 22  2001 rename

then, in lib, try a "chmod 4755 rename" to make it that way and see if that
helps.

Bruce
