Now, that was run under a webserver. right? not under asterisk as an 
AGI?  I thought we were expecting to see root:wheel :)

I understand that it shouldn't matter WHERE you run it from...

Does -w perms on a dir mean you can't modify files within the dir?  
Means you can't CREATE new files in the dir, but you can modify existing 
files, right?  I guess what I'm wondering is if sqlite does something 
like this, to keep the transaction atomic:

1.  load test.sqlite to memory
2.  add the record
3.  dump it to disk in a tmp file, test.sqlite.asdfasdf
4.  rm test.sqlite && mv test.sqlite.asdfasdf test.sqlite
So I'm wondering if step 3 is breaking because go-w (and group is wheel) 
on agi-bin dir?

Did you follow me?
