That is a good reason to set them explicitly in your code. If you want me to believe you regarding umask and setting global perms in ubuntu, tell me exactly what you did to set your global permissions in Ubuntu.. along with the Ubuntu version that you are using. I will bet my turtles left paw that you are missing something. ;-) Btw, I just now set the global perms in a MacTel 10.5.7 box that is sitting next to me, and movefile came along as expected.. SiteBuilder store creation now follows the global permissions settings I just made. For those that want to do this, follow this tech note: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2202 Donovan P.S. I wouldn't be so hard on you Ken if you were not always adamant about every !@#$ thing you guess about... and do you have to throw a negative slant on every little issue? <-- rhetorical question. :-/ Donovan -- Donovan Brooke WebDNA Software Corporation http://www.webdna.us **[Square Bracket Utopia]**
