+ Hello,
+ 
+ Task:  Create Web-based Deployment System using Ant
+ Tools: 
+   Apache 
+   Tomcat 
+   XSL To read build.xml and display
+   PERL 5.0 Script (deploy.pl) to issue Ant build command
+   Ant 1.3
+ 
+ Problem Definition:
+ setup:
+    -Apache user is "nobody"
+    -deploy.pl script has permissions of -rwsr-xr-x (note the s flag to switch 
+ to owner to run the script) and Owner of root
+    -Ant Target Move_File_To_Dir is called and expected to move the files as 
+ root to root-owned directory.
+ 
+ BUG/ISSUE:
+    -Ant reassumes the permissions of "nobody" instead of holding onto "root" 
+ permissions and recieves/issues FileNotFound(permission denied) exception when 
+ trying to copy a file.  This occurrs in both <EXEC executable=cp> and <COPY> 
+ tasks.  
+ 
+ If this is a bug great! If there is a work-around that won't compromise my 
+ security great! Please let me know.
+ 
+ Thank you, Bret Williams
