ssh permissions problem

[avbo...@gmail.com]

macFUSE CORE 0.4.0
MacFusion 1.2 beta2
OS X 10.4.9

I'm connecting via SSH to a FreeNAS File Sharing server. I can
connect and read but cannot write to any directory. Permissions are
set correctly in FreeNAS (-rwxrwxr--). OS X info says I can read and
write but I get a "operation cannot be completed because you do not
have sufficient privileges for some of the items" error.

This happens when attempting to copy a single dmg (or any file) to the
share.

Any ideas as to what may be happening here? I'm still new to *nix but
I'm not afraid of it anymore. :-)

Thanks!

Try the -o defer_auth advanced option. It has worked for many others.

Thanks for the tip. Worked great.

I am connecting over the internet. Am I creating a security
vulnerability by "-o defer_auth" deferring authorization?

Thanks again!

The option appeared in MacFUSE 0.4.0 and is explained at
<http://code.google.com/p/macfuse/wiki/CHANGELOG>. Highlight:

For allow_root,

but defer_auth is not associated with vulnerability.
