> can anybody tell my where in the sources does Linux check for file acces permissions? ie: When I try to read, write, or execute a file and linux checks if I am allowed to do so. If not, could somebody tell my wich files to look at?

/usr/src/linux/fs/*

For ext2 file permission checking, look in:

/usr/src/linux/fs/ext2

It is in inode.c I think...
