-## Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) 
- 
- 
-I am getting strange permission denied errors, what I am doing wrong? 
-  New storage space uses kerberos authentication for file access. This is much more secure method than verifying user access locally at server but this also mean few changes. 
-    a) User does not get kerberos ticket with SSH keypair. User must login once a week with a password 
-    b) If user has not logged in a 10 days the user loses temporarily access to file system.
