'w' applies to the content of the object it is set on, allowing write to _that_ object. "Filenames" are 'content" inside a directory (filenames that point to their own content -- the content of the file).
So, I would have to change the permissions of the directory. I can't do that. :-(
==== Why is that? (shared?): you might be able to access lists to accomplish similar, or if you have "root", you could set the immutable bit on the file (which won't allow you to change the file until you clear the immutable bit w/root).
I don't remember why I said that, but another program needs access to those directories. Anyway, I have a working solution, I commented on it on another post. Yes, I do change some of the permissions of the directories. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
