Hi all.

I have a linux box:

-bash-4.1$ cat /etc/oracle-release

Oracle Linux Server release 6.3

I'd like to know the difference between these file permissions:

/u01

-bash-4.1$ ls -l

total 48

drwxrwxr-x 4 oracle oinstall 4096 jul 14 2015 app

drwxr-xr-x 2 oracle oinstall 20480 feb 15 11:29 archive_duplex

drwxr-xr-x 3 oracle oinstall 4096 feb 10 11:56 backup_fra

drwxr-xr-x 3 oracle oinstall 4096 sep 21 2015 backup_rman

drwxr-xr-x 5 oracle oinstall 4096 abr 8 09:15 oracle

drwxr-xr-x 4 oracle oinstall 4096 mar 4 08:58 oradata

drwxr-xr-x 2 oracle oinstall 4096 mar 28 13:51 Respaldos_BD

drwxrwxr-x. 7 oracle oinstall 4096 abr 5 09:42 stage

-bash-4.1$

Notice the trailing dot (.) at the end of stage folder.

This have been puzzling me for some time.

Thanks in advance!!!!
