[RESOLVED] linux permission problem

[toenailsin]

i'm having a problem with my linux box. it won't let me modify the apache2.conf file even as root and i have no idea why. I've never had problems modifing it before. Any help will be appreciated.

tried restarting, no change

heres the directory listing

drwxr-xr-x  7 root root  4096 2009-01-24 22:56 .
drwxr-xr-x 93 root root  4096 2009-01-24 23:04 ..
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 10716 2009-01-21 13:21 apache2.conf
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 10716 2009-01-24 22:56 apache2.conf~
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root  4096 2009-01-06 20:32 conf.d
-rw-r--r--  1 root root   378 2008-06-26 01:49 envvars
-rw-r--r--  1 root root    49 2009-01-06 20:34 httpd.conf
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root  4096 2009-01-18 18:19 mods-available
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root  4096 2009-01-24 19:15 mods-enabled
-rw-r--r--  1 root root    59 2008-06-26 01:49 ports.conf
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root  4096 2009-01-24 22:33 sites-available
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root  4096 2009-01-24 22:30 sites-enabled

I'm unsure as to why theres a second apache.conf file, but its editable, unlike the main one, yet it has the exact same permissions.


EDIT: nvm, i worked it out.
