can't delete a file

[Patrick Hsieh <pahud@pahud.net>]

Hello list,

I created a file as root and chown it to a common account, then su to
that account, trying to delete it as that account but failed. Any idea?

# touch todel
# chown pahud todel
# ls -l todel
-rw-r--r--    1 pahud   root            0 Sep  4 16:08 todel
# su pahud
> rm -f todel
rm: cannot unlink `todel': Permission denied
> ls -al todel
-rw-r--r--    1 pahud   root            0 Sep  4 16:08 todel
