Yes...

What are you trying to achieve?
If oracel is the user and cob_sftp is the group you want to give access, you must ask yourself is oracle in that group?
If so you can keep the ownership, if not changing the owner is the correct solution, but you loose the ownership and will not be able to modify the perms etc... of the file anymore if you are not root...
In both cases you should:
Code:
chmod 774 test.sh

ns_requestauthorize

ns_requestauthorize(3aolserver) 			    AOLserver Built-In Commands 			   ns_requestauthorize(3aolserver)

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NAME

       ns_requestauthorize - commands

SYNOPSIS

       ns_requestauthorize option ?arg arg ...?
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

   ns_requestauthorize method URL authuser authpassword ?ipaddr?
       Ask  the  server  to check permissions using nsperm.  This function does the same permission check that the AOLserver does before serving a
       URL. If the nsperm module is loaded, the algorithm is as follows.

       1. If the authuser is "nsadmin", the password is correct, and the IP address of the client is allowed nsadmin access, then access is autho-
	  rized.

       2. Find the relevant permission record. If an exact match for the method and URL combination is not found, the end of the URL is pared down
	  until a match is found. For example, if there is no match for `/products/cereals/raisin_bran.html,' then the server looks for a  permis-
	  sion record for the URL `/products/cereals.' If that permission record is specified as "Exact URL match is NOT required", then that per-
	  mission record is used.

       By default, the server comes with a row that says GET on `/' is open to the world. If no relevant permission record  is	found,	access	is
       denied (forbidden).

       1. If the authuser is in the "Allow Users" list, access is permitted. If the authuser is a member of a group in the "Allow Groups" list and
	  not in the "Deny Users" list, access is permitted.

       2. If the host is in the "Hosts to allow" list, access is permitted. If the host is in the "Hosts to deny" list, access is denied.

       3. If the request does not come in with authorization data, access is denied.

       4. The user and password are verified. If there is no password specified in the database, any password is accepted.

       5. Otherwise, access is denied.

   Return Values:
       The following values can be returned by ns_requestauthorize.

       OK	  The user has permission to execute this URL and method.

       DENIED	  The user does not have permission to execute this URL and method.

       FORBIDDEN  There is no possible user/password/IP Address combination that would give authorization.

       ERROR	  There was an error.
