Hi Justin
The problem maybe the users authority on the different directories that the ifs file resides in/under
If there are 4 directories that you have to go into to reach the ifs file, you should check the authority of each of those 4 directories

I have a rename() API call that's failing with "Operation not permitted.".
The user doing the rename isn't the owner but have *RWX / *ALL authority to
the IFS file.

You may have to switch profile handles to a user that has the necessary
authority.

Generally that also means running a program that adopts higher authority.
