Kathy,
I'm going to assume that what you're trying to do is create UTL_FILE files
that
have group r/w permissions. As others have pointed out, you're being
thwarted
by the perms of the oracle process.
Here's how I've overridden that in the past.
Assuming your directory is /u01/utl_file/db01/, create a new group called
util_file in unix.
Now change the group and perms on the directory:
chgrp util_file /u01/utl_file/db01/
chmod g+rxs /u01/utl_file/db01/
Now all files created in the /u01/utl_file/db01/ file directory will have
a group of util_file with read permission.
Just add the util_file group to users that need access.
Read the chmod man page for details.

Subject: slightly OT, permissions unix/oracle puzzler
Ok, I log in as oracle, touch a file I get 664 permission on it.
But when I create a file through OEM or a plsql procedure I get 644
permissions.
My umask is 02.
On another system - solaris everything ok.
Both .profiles are the same.
Sys admins no help.
Any clues?
Thanks,
Kathy
