Re: IFS file with read only attribute fails to unlink()

Not the unix function but the CL command CHGATR

I have an IFS file that has the read-only attribute set. I need to move it 
to another directory after it has been processes, but unlink() fails with 
errno = "3500-File is read only". I have attemted to use the chMod() 
function to change the read only attribute but it seems to only effect the 
authorities to the object/data and not the read only attribute. 
Does anyone know the correct unix function to change the read only attribute 
of the correct mode(s) to use with chMod()?
