Problem:
We have a file created with keytool (from jdk 1.5) that is only visible with the ls command. When we do a dir, it's not there.
Specifics:
- This file is owned by the user, all other files in the folder are owned by system.
- The user is an administrator.
- Hidden files and system files are set to visible in the explorer settings.
The file was created using the descriptions here: http://developer.android.com/guide/publishing/app-signing.html
$ keytool -genkey -v -keystore my-release-key.keystore -alias alias_name -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000
