Although completely unrelated to screen, I had similar permission problems with one of my sshfs mounts. I finally solved it with the following sshfs params: sshfs [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/path /mount/point -o allow_root -o idmap=user -o uid=1000 -o gid=1000 I would suggest trying that, or change allow_root to allow_other, and see if that helps. -- Andy Harrison public key: 0x67518262 _______________________________________________ screen-users mailing list screen-users@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/screen-users
