These are the Dokuwiki defaults, so unless Tony has changed them, they are probably correctly set, as far as DokuWiki is concerned. It sounds to me like an ownership problem, since when he resets his permisssions to 777 manually (just before saving), he can then write to his file. In other words, he is giving both group and world write permisssion. If the site had a previous history of editing and saving, then something has changed on the server, and Tony should contact his ISP. In the meantime, it sounds to me like the only way to solve his problem is to set fmode to 666, which gives everyone write permission.
