Hmm, I'm thinking there might need to be RW authority to all
directories in the path. Something like that...
So far as I'm aware, there already is.
And there aren't any softlinks.
Some time ago, I added a call to fchown(), immediately after file
creation, to transfer ownership of the file to the user's primary group
profile, in order to prevent the file from disappearing if some
less-than-brilliant administrator did a DLTUSRPRF with OWNOBJOPT(*DLT)
on the creator (it's happened, believe me!)
At the moment, the best hypothesis I can come up with for explaining why
the owner is *explicitly* excluded from all *object* authority to the
file, in the affected environment, is that somehow the fchown() is going
terribly wrong.
Anybody ever hear of such a thing?
