If you are not the owner of the file/or in the group the file belongs to you
will not be allowed to change it.  Log in as an authorized user(or root) and
you should be able to delete the file.

Another thing you could try is rm -f <filename> to "force" removal.

Í have tried to do that with chmod, but it says the same thing.

How do I change the permission?
