I want to run vi on my personal account, but it either tells me, "Error: Temporary file: Permission denied" or after I changed my group access to wheel, "log db: Permission denied". What is going on? Why can't I run vi, even though I have the location in my path in my .cshrc? Someone help! Thanks, email replies preferred but not necessary. PAtrick .. -- Patrick A. Walsh !!
