You are right 707 wouldn't be a good one to use on a production
server, but for testing purposes i think would be OK. I am thinking
that the problem is when the script runs it is setup with a group of
nobody, setting to 707 would allow that to write the file, if it were
a permission problem causing the issue, using 707 would make anyone
able to write to the folder, but would also tell for sure if the
folder permissions are the cause of the problems the OP is having.
