Subject: Permission denied -- Say what?


Sometimes I still get baffled by Linux. This is one of those times.

I'd like to run the seti@HOME client; I've done this before on this
machine (different system) and on other machines.

Today I get "Permission denied" to execute a file I own, in a directory
I own and have write and execute permissions.

What's up with that?

bash:/home/ronin/files/seti$ ls -al
total 452

bash: ./setiathome: Permission denied

Out in space,
