not able to remove directory
I did execute this command
cp -rp /home/anotheruser/abcd /home/userme/abcd and it copied the dir. Now I see that the dir 'abcd' has rwx permission for anotheruser. But the files inside it has r-x permissions for all. So I am not able to delete these files and this dir. Any way?

If you copied files to your directory, you should be the owner. If the other guy copied them, he is the owner.
If you own the files: Code:
chmod -R 777 /home/userme/abcd

yes, this is also true but what had happened was that soem script which had run had done
chmod u-w . on /home/userme/ directory. This I came to know when I could not delete other directories also. I corrected using chmod u+w . Thanks
