That doesn't matter either. I use a 192... convention. It has to be a permission problem. I generate about 25 wu's a day on FreeBSD machines and have no problems. Make sure your directory permissions are consistant with your user access rights. I created a user called seti and I get into trouble when I do something as root because seti can't modify files created by root.
