That does in fact fix things - but as I said in my previous post, why is this needed when the owner (me) has R/E
permissions? This seems like a potential security issue, doens't this give write permission to anyone via the group
permissions?

My problem:

    * Login as my own user (not admin).

    * My user (Philip) has the following rights assigned:
       - All Users
       - Story Admin
       - Block Admin
       - Link Admin
       - Topic Admin
       - Event Admin
       - Poll Admin
       - Logged-in Users
       - Static Page Admin

    * Create a new story.

    * Attempt to edit story.

    * Edit fails with logged message:
       Sun Jul 18 15:51:18 2004 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) - User Philip tried to
illegally edit story 2004071815481577.

Looking at DB contents:

    Philip has uid=4
    The story has uid=4
    The story has owerid=4
    The story has sid=2004071815481577

The story show permissions as:

    Owner   Group   Members   Anonymous
       R E       R E           R                 R
       x  x       x  -            x                  x

Admin can (or course) modify with no problem.
This problem is reproducible.

Any ideas what is wrong?
