I don't think this is a case of not reading the whole question, it's a case of not understanding unix permissions. Last I checked, you didn't have to be root just to cd to a directory owned by root. If that were the case, you would have some difficulty working a linux system, since just about everything is owned by root :)
Anders! (my fault, I didn't quote properly) In my original post, I included the lines: jake@linux:/etc/opt> sux <this is what Patrick missed> Password: linux:/etc/opt # ls /bin/ls: kde3: Permission denied ...it wasn't just a cd (indeed, you knew this becuase your post solved the problem) Heck i wished I just shut up now 8) Jake
