Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting screen throws "permission denied" Post 302094055 by saladoil on Tuesday 24th of October 2006 09:17:31 PM

Ran into this myself some time ago. The problem is due to permissions on the "device" screen is using. This is why you are getting the "permission denied" error. Can't quite remember which device right now, but I wrote a script to change perms on the device for users wishing to do very close to what you want to do. If I recall, I brought up screen while using another session to poll (cd <device_directory>; while true; do ls -ltr; done), the device list. This way, I could see which device was assigned a user, and know which device to change perms on. Hope this helps... if I remember, I can look for the script tomorrow and post it.

NAME
lsmsad - Starts the Storage Administrator (SA) daemon SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/lsmsad DESCRIPTION
The SA daemon, lsmsad, is a process required by lsmsa, the SA graphical user interface (GUI). The daemon issues commands and obtains system information on behalf of SA. The SA daemon runs on a Tru64 UNIX system on which LSM is initialized and running. The SA client runs on any machine that supports the Java Runtime Environment. The SA daemon is automatically started at boot time. Under normal conditions, the daemon does not need to be run manually. If SA does not start during the boot process, enter: /sbin/init.d/lsmsa stop To restart SA, enter: /sbin/init.d/lsmsa start Only one SA daemon can be running on a system at a given time. If a second SA daemon attempts to start, it will fail. RESTRICTIONS
You must be root user to run lsmsad. FILES
The script that starts lsmsad at boot time. The command log file that tracks SA tasks. The access log file that tracks login to SA. The server log file that tracks server startup information and server errors. The log maintenance shell script that saves and compresses log files. SEE ALSO
