After saving the file, if I run a ls -l on the directory the file permissions on the file I opened are set to "hhayes" as the owner with rw permission, and the group is set to "users" with only r permission. I am not deleting the file and recreating it, only opening and then saving it. This happens no matter what user opens and saves a file. I know that it isn't supposed to work this way, because my other Debian box works correctly.
Are you shure?As far as I know, when you save a file in Excel, the file is not overwritten, but is copied to a temporary file, then the old file renamed and the new file is renamed. Stefano Salvi
