Dear gentleman/madam,

i have just installed openbsd 4.1. I am very happy with it, but
something i was not expecting is happening:

As an ordinary user (belonging to the group wheel) i switched to the
ports collection directory (/usr/ports/x11/openmotif) and issued i
"make fetch".

I got surprised when the tarball started to be dowloaded in
/usr/ports/distfiles although its sticky bit is not on.

May someone here explain me how it is possible?

Please provide some more info:

$ cd /usr/ports/distfiles
$ ls -ld . openmotif*
$ cat /etc/mk.conf

Did you grant yourself permission in the sudoers file?

Disclaimer: I am not running 4.1
