A stupid Unix question:

So there's this directory that I own.

Sometimes a little daemon comes by and writes files and directories inside it. These belong to the daemon.

I want to be able to blow these files away at my leisure. All attempts to rm them result in permission errors. (Note that my desires are distinct from wanting to prevent the daemon from writing to the directory, which I don't. Want to prevent. The.)

Am I wrong in thinking that this should be somehow possible?
