Hi
Well the directory has 777 permissions, and I mean any user "xyz" not only "root".
But the point is that as the file is readonly how is vi allowing to do forced write, and change the ownership of file? Even if it allows this then should't it be restricted to root or at most the owner/group-members!!
The version of vi that I use is "vim-enhanced-6.2.98-1" on a RedHat9.
