Not as such. Ssh is perfectly reasonable in being paranoid about permissions as it has no way of knowing that only you are in your personal group. There is really no need for group write permission on your directory, so you might as well chmod g-w it. -- Aaron Denney -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
