Since lucid was installed, I can no longer access my floppy drive. I try creating an image on it and this happens:
$ dd if=a.img of=/dev/fd0
$ dd: opening `/dev/fd0': Permission denied
How do I get permission to do this? I'm the only user and am an administrator.

The root user of Linux doesn't have permission to read/write a regular file, unless all users have permission to read/write this file, like below:
drwxrwsrwx ....... file_name
However the owner of the file can still read/write this file.
AND:
0) not the problem of execution, just read/write
1) not the problem of device because regular user can read/write it.
2) the result of command id:
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)
so I don't think it's the problem of group.

I am attempting to make a backup copy of a file, but every time I try to copy the file, I get a "permission denied error -- even when running as root. The file is on a volume mounted as /media/Data . No problems reading/writing other files on the volume.
Here is the info on the file:
-rw-------. 1 root MailServer.img
I've tried chown but get the permission denied as well. This is a virtual machine image that runs fine, but even with the VM completely shut down, I get the same error.

I'm running Ubuntu 11.04 (guest) on Windows 7 (host) with the guest additions installed. I have an auto-mount folder that maps to my D: drive on the host which I can access using sudo ls /media/sf_D_DRIVE - however, even when my user (ross) is a member of the vboxsf group I get a permission denied error when attempting to explore it. I have restarted since adding my user to the vboxsf group.
This should work because I am a member of the group (which has rwx rights), so why doesn't it?
ross@panther:~$ ls -l /media
total 8
drwxrwx--- 1 root vboxsf 8192 2011-07-03 22:24 sf_D_DRIVE
ross@panther:~$ ls -l /media/sf_D_DRIVE/
ls: cannot open directory /media/sf_D_DRIVE/: Permission denied

The user "abimail" has a mailbox specified in /home/abimail/.spop3d which is /var/mail/abimail. The permissions of /var/mail/abimail are:
Code:
rwxrwx--- 1 abimail mailgroup 192113 2010-01-28 20:24 /var/mail/abimail. When logging in to solid-pop3d as user abimail and attempting to fetch mails, the login works but it will pop up the error "can't open mailbox file"; syslog entries:
Code:

As root I get the following result: ngssuse:~ # traceroute -nI 10.200.123.45
Note: the -i and -I options were exchangedfor compability with LBL traceroute Use -I for ICMP, and -i <ifname> to specify the interface name unable to create ICMP send socket: Permission denied. Is this a bug?

I have a system in which I do not have root access to. On that system, I have my own directory which I share with other users. I am trying to clean it up when I noticed that there was a subdirectory created by another users in my group that I cannot delete. It has all the permissions set besides global write. How can I delete this folder without root permission? I can't even chmod or chown it.

I'm running PCLinuxOS with no other OS installed. Thought I'd have a go at chainloading. just for interests sake.So, I opened Konsole, entered su and entered my root password. The command line turned red so, I imagined all was well. But when I then keyed in '/boot/grub/.menu.lst' I was refused access.

root@ubuntu:~# ls -la
ls: cannot access .gvfs: Permission denied
I understand that with a desktop active, shelled as root, I could get this message. Does this kind of behavior effect applications like MYSQL, PHP, Apache etc?

In previous Slackware libsane releases, my scanner was not supported. In 13.1 the support is there:
root@gandalf:~# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 03f0:3304 Hewlett-Packard DeskJet 990c
Bus 002 Device 004: ID 04a7:0229 Visioneer OneTouch 7100
[Code]....
Why am I suddenly getting "permission denied" both as root, and as the normal user (yes added to 'scanner' group)? What changed from the full DVD installation (using 2.6.33.4-generic and initrd) after added the the patches? I've been googling for months trying different "permission fixes" and fiddling with udev rules with no luck. So there is something I don't understand going on here.

I'm hoping someone can help me out with this issue I'm having using acl(s). I have a user I want to grant access to logs I have stored on my server. I am doing this by setting up an acl to that directory where the logs are stored. My settings seem to look fine, however I cannot read or even reach the directory with the said user; we'll call him "userP".
Here is my code:
To ensure userP has access to the parent directory (jboss) code...
Not sure what I'm doing wrong here: there are no errors in the logs; just "Permission denied" however I try to get to the directory.
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

After I type sshd: 192.168.1.11 : allow and
sshd : ALL : Deny
I can't access hosts.allow or deny any more.
It says "Permission denied"
Before I typed that, I can access hosts.allow and deny.
By the way, I was wondering what command to edit hosts.allow.
For example, I want to put sshd: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx : allow in that file.
