Weird chmod issue - can't change permissions as root

[NuMPTeH]

Hi everyone,

Not sure what else to do at this point - I need/want to chmod some files when operating as root, but running chmod never modifies them from 777

e.g.

root@------:/# ls -lah test-mount.sh 
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 312 Sep 18 13:54 test-mount.sh
root@------:/# chmod 600 test-mount.sh 
root@------:/# ls -lah test-mount.sh 
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 312 Sep 18 13:54 test-mount.sh

Still 777 after setting it to 600

Why?
