Silly Juniper...

Just got the Juniper ScreenOS Product Documentation CD Version 5.0 June 2004 Rev. B in some brand new NetScreen 50 boxes.

Either the doc CDs aren't revisioned very often or these NS50's move kinda slow... any way,

The disc is CDFS or whatever, but all the directories are 444 permissions on linux and MacOS. You can't change directories to read the PDFs when anything but root. On a linux box, at least you can be root, on a Mac it is really inconveniant. In either case, why would I want to be root when I'm reading PDFs?

Looks like nobody at Juniper uses the doc CD on different architectures. Maybe they only use windows internally or have all the docs on the webserver internally.
