What are the permissions on bus/usb/001/026? From my testing, if you
chown a symlink, it changes the permissions on what it points to, not on
the link itself....
I did the following:
% touch foo
% ls -l foo
-rw-rw-r-- 1 cummings cummings 0 2010-07-25 15:07 foo
% ln -s foo bar
% ls -l bar
lrwxrwxrwx 1 cummings cummings 3 2010-07-25 15:08 bar -> foo
% sudo chown root:wheel bar
% ls -l foo bar
lrwxrwxrwx 1 cummings cummings 3 2010-07-25 15:08 bar -> foo
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root wheel 0 2010-07-25 15:07 foo
