[Labs-l] permission/access denied issues when connecting to wmflabs

[Ann Samoilenko]

Hi Jeremy,

I am on Windows 7, so I am using both Putty and WinSCP. WinSCP gives the
error message I mentioned in the last email. When I try the same via Putty,
this is what I get:
torin8 at tools-login:/$ cd home
torin8 at tools-login:/home$ cd torin8
-bash: cd: torin8: Permission denied


I authenticate when I log in (using my torin8 username and password). Do I
need extra authentications to run scripts? How do I do that?

Best,
Ann
