[daip] Issue with new accounts : write permissions ?

[Atish Kamble]

Thanks for your response Eric,

We tried suggestions from your message. But we still get the errors even
before the stage of entering user number :

ZDCHI1: ZERROR: ON FILE DA00:SPD000000;
ZDCHI1: ZERROR: IN ZDAOPN ERRNO = 13 (Permission denied)
 ZDCHIN: COULD NOT READ PARAMETER FILE
AIPS 1: ZERROR: ON FILE DA00:SPD000000;
AIPS 1: ZERROR: IN ZDAOPN ERRNO = 13 (Permission denied)
 ZDCHIN: COULD NOT READ PARAMETER FILE
 ZDCHIN: (USING MINIMUM SYSTEM CONFIGURATION)
AIPS 1: ZDCHIN: NO NETSP ENTRY FOR DA01
AIPS 1: ZDCHIN: NO NETSP ENTRY FOR DA02

And usual tasks seem to have difficulty executing properly. For example
when I run the task CALRD :

AIPS 2: CALRD:  Task to read in a calibrator FITS image file
AIPS 2: Adverbs     Values                 Comments
AIPS 2: ----------------------------------------------------------------
AIPS 2: OBJECT     '3C147'                 Object name
AIPS 2: BAND       'C'                     Code for arrays and band
AIPS 2: OUTDISK       1                    Disk drive # (0 => any)
>go calrd
AIPS 2: ZERROR: ON FILE DA00:TDD000004;
AIPS 2: ZERROR: IN ZDAOPN ERRNO = 13 (Permission denied)

Cheers,
- Atish .
