On an hd install of DSL, whenever I try to place files in /opt/monkey/htdocs regardless if the Monkey webserver daemon is running, it gives me a "Permission Denied".

I tried chmodding the folder, and it didn't work. So what could be wrong?

Yes, emelfm as superuser will give me write access to that folder.

BUT: I am setting up a server in DSL on a very old machine, so I am preventing X from starting, just starting the services I need. And since it isn't a good idea to run as root all the time, I just run it as user dsl. And of course, when I connect via FTP I can't upload files to /opt/monkey/htdocs.

That is what is driving me insane... :p

You must be running an older version.
Newer versions have group write access for group staff.

What was the chmod command that your tried to use?

Actually I'm running the the newer version, 0.9.3.

I used
sudo chmod 755 /opt/monkey/htdocs

I can write to this directory when I am running DSL off the CD. But after installing it to my hard drive it has this problem.
