Something really weird happened, that I don't fully grok, suddenly my permissions were changed, and since I also the laptop crash on an empty battery while frantically trying to complete some stuff, most likely, an old auto-save file was present. If I remove the file, then it does indeed inherit the 0600. So, I guess I could make this into a wishlist bug for updating the permissions if they have been altered on the remote system? :-) Cheers, Kjetil
