Tim, I have never ever had such a "problem" -- it always was in the end a permission issue on the "operating system world". That is, one has to properly mount the drive/filesystem he wants to use under its own user-id (at least in Linux) and there will be no issue.

[GRASS-user] Possible to switch off permissions check of mapsets?
And straight on to another question: Is there a way of switching of the permissions check when opening a mapset? It prevents me from opening mapsets that are mounted on different filesystems as the grass installation. E.g. if I try to open a mapset located on a remote directory (mounted using fuse) in my local Ubuntu grass6.4 version fails with: ERROR: MAPSET PERMANENT - permission denied Any solution to this would be much appreciated.
