detaching db and attaching to another server

Using SS2000 SP4. I've detached a db from server A and been able to attach i
t
without any problem to server B. However, if I try to attach it to server C,
the database shows as read-only. The same thing happens with other databases
that I try to attach to server C.
Any idea why?
Thanks,

Check to see that you are not putting your database data files in a
read only folder. I had read only to true by accident and got the same
symptoms you did. When you turn off read only, you will have to
re-attach.

full control to the user that the services are using but if the user doesn't
need full control, I'd rather reduce them.
