LC Server - Upload Large Images?

[Mike Bonner]

I wonder if the file is being created read only (is it possible there is a
umask set on that folder that does this?)  at which point renaming it,
deleting, or whatever wouldn't work, but reading it and creating a copy
(put url into url) would work.  I'd be looking at the permissions of those
newly created files in tmp and see.
