Are you part of the group?  Try "groups" when you're logged in as your
normal user to find out what groups you're in.  Or, as root, type "groups
username" to find out the groups a "username" belongs too.  To modify
which groups you belong to, either edit the /etc/groups file or use the

	usermod [-G group[,group][,..]] username

command.  Note that the groups must be comma separated ONLY, no spaces.
