[cobalt-users] [Raq3] File permissions- rejected from admin - MORE



Folks:

	Here's some more information on the problem:

RE: I've noticed that I can't change file permissions (CHMOD) via FTP anymore, even as "admin". I get the following message:

		"Server Response:  CHMOD not allowed on <file name>"

******* Telnet session *********

[admin@tesla cgi-bin]$ pwd
/home/sites/site21/web/cgi-bin

[admin@tesla cgi-bin]$ ls -l
total 42
-rw-r--r--   1 jchretie site21       3482 Aug 29 13:35 MunicaMsg.pm
drwxr-sr-x   3 jchretie site21       1024 Aug 29 12:57 Scripts
-rw-r--r--   1 jchretie site21       9471 Aug 29 13:34 Validator.pm
-rw-r--r--   1 jchretie site21       2059 Aug 29 13:39 comments_form.cgi
-rw-r--r--   1 jchretie site21       2293 Aug 29 13:39 enter_form.cgi
-rw-r--r--   1 jchretie site21      16890 Aug 29 13:34 municacgi.cgi
-rw-r--r--   1 jchretie site21       2246 Aug 29 13:39 wed_party_form.cgi

[admin@tesla cgi-bin]$ chmod 755 comments_form.cgi
chmod: comments_form.cgi: Operation not permitted

[admin@tesla cgi-bin]$

****************

The client "jchretie" can't make permissions changes, either. Regardless of the user name and password, "admin" should be able to do this. At the moment, only "root" can make these changes (via Telnet).
	Anybody know what might be up?
