i am invoking op from a python proggy which does an op.system() of

btw, have tested with same invocation directly from /bin/sh. same
result. i.e. it is not the python environment.
% ls -l /usr/local/etc/op.access

clue bat, please
Let me recap, and you correct me when I'm wrong:
* you're running as UID 1007.
* the file is owned by root.
* you're trying to chmod it and it's failing.
Is that the situation so far?
