Close, but not quite cigar material :-)

Try "ls- lLd":

$ ls -ld OHSUMI
lrwxrwxrwx    1 aipsmgr  aipspgmr      24 Dec 15 14:31 OHSUMI -> /home/ohsumi/AIPS/OHSUMI
$ ls -Lld OHSUMI
drwxrwsr-x    2 aipsmgr  aipsuser    4096 Jan 29 16:26 OHSUMI

You got the symlink permissions, not the actual directory itself.

However...

-rw-rw-r--    1 bbutler  aipsuser        0 Jan 29 16:26 TAPE1.lock

Unless someone like Eric has fixed things in the meantime, and assuming
you were running as either aips or bbutler, I'm not sure I understand why
you got the permission denied on that lock file.

Ah, the date on it is 16:26 and your message was dated 16:04.  Eric?
