What's going on? Since /foo/bar/ is owned by root and everything in it is 600 root:root, I would not expect a remote access to allow things like renaming. Clearly I am missing something here, but I don't get it.What are the permissions on the directory /usr/foo/bar?
775 Let me correct something. The files in that directory are owned by root:wheel (not root:root - I got my *nixes confused), but they definitely have 600 perms. On Machine A, user 'myid' is IN the wheel group but I still don't see how he's getting permission to rename the file.
