Client and server were both upgraded from 1:1.2.5-3 to 1:1.2.5-4 on the
same day.

~ $ ls -l /media/htpc/hdvb/mscript.py
-rwxr-xr-x 1 nobody nogroup 376 Jan 11 12:54 /media/htpc/hdvb/mscript.py
~ $ /media/htpc/hdvb/mscript.py
bash: /media/htpc/hdvb/mscript.py: Permission denied
I overlooked the "nobody nogroup" before. Is that normal? The UIDs are
the same on both PCs and I can write to the file despite the discrepancy
in the user and group names.
