    Unfortunately that does not show me the directory permissions before and after to illustrate that it was unmounted before.
      in the first ls nothing is there, in the second, there is. In the middle there is a perl -w, which tells me that the -w call mounted it. -w returns 1 indicating I have write permissions
        I can't argue with that. It is just not what I am seeing. Can you please confirm your OS and Perl versions: 'where perl' 'perl -V' 'uname -A'
