Currently, even after I unchecked the little lock ( I am logged in as an
administrator) ...  The following ownership and permissions are grayed
out...


YOU CAN: -  read and write = grayed out
 owner  = system
 access = read and write = grayed out
 group = admin
 access = read and write = grayed out

 others = read only = grayed out

Q: how can I gain access to the grayed out parameters?
Q: why did this happen?
