You need to be more than in group wheel to fix this. You need to be root.
Although I see no indication of it here, we did run a chmod 4755 on this directory. Tried the chmod g+s . at a prompt as well.
Until you're root, you're not going to be able to fix this.
Still we get this error. Is there any way to get ls to show permissions as numbers, instead of in rwx format?
Check your man page for `ls`, but I didn't see anything on the FreeBSD systems I checked.
What might folks suggest to get us moving again?
You need to get root access to the box, or at least your friend does, so that you can correct the permissions problem.
