I don't understand something about file permissions ... and cannot
find anything in the man pages so far. Here's the gist of what I was
doing.

hiphop# pwd
/
hiphop# mkdir foo
hiphop# cp -p bin/rcp foo/
cp: foo/rcp: Operation not permitted
hiphop# ls -l foo/*
-r-sr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  208536 Jan  7 20:37 foo/rcp
hiphop# rm foo/rcp
override r-sr-xr-x  root/wheel schg for foo/rcp? y
rm: foo/rcp: Operation not permitted
hiphop# !l
ls -l foo/*
-r-sr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  208536 Jan  7 20:37 foo/rcp
hiphop# whoami
root

drwxr-xr-x   2 root  wheel      512 Jan 10 12:41 test

hiphop# uname -a
FreeBSD hiphop.monsterbymistake.com 3.4-STABLE FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE #5: Fri Jan  7 20:51:51 EST 2000     root@hiphop.monsterbymistake.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/HIPHOP  i386
hiphop#

What don't I understand?

thanks,
