Dunno if anyone answered this yet, or took care of it.

Locally or via REMTAPE (i.e. remotely)?

The TPD file indicated in /home/aips/DA00/$HOST/ is not writable either by
you, or by the TPMON process if you're accessing ute remotely.  Check its
permissions via "ls -l $NET0/<insert-hostname-here>/TPD001001*"
(substituting either ute or mithril or whatever for the host name).

... and you're a member of aipsuser.

I just checked, and I see the problem:

-rw-r--r--  1 aips  aipsuser  1024 Sep 16 22:36 /home/AIPS/DA00/UTE/TPD001001;

it's not group writable.  Someone had a umask of 022, not 002.  I fixed
it just now.
