Ok so one not so fun issue . . .

william@beaglebone:~/dev/bonejs$ config-pin P8.07 low
sudo: no askpass program specified, try setting SUDO_ASKPASS
Cannot write gpio direction file: /sys/class/gpio/gpio66/direction

EXCEPT
william@beaglebone:~/dev/bonejs$ ls -al /sys/class/gpio/gpio66/direction
-rwxrwx--- 1 root *gpio* 4096 Jun 23 14:17 /sys/class/gpio/gpio66/direction

william@beaglebone:~/dev/bonejs$ getent group gpio
*gpio*:x:1001:william

I've a feeling I know how to fix this though . . . will require editing
config-pin . . .
