[[!meta title="Can my scripts write data somewhere?"]]
You can give your scripts permission to write data to
subdirectories of your Athena home directory by granting
appropriate AFS access to **daemon.scripts** (we provide sample
commands below).

Each scripts.mit.edu user can also write up to 10MB (or 10k inodes)
to /tmp. You should only write truly temporary data to /tmp.

Here are some commands that might be helpful:

The following command will grant the script server write access
to  
your current directory (cd into the directory that you want to
write to and  
then run this command):
    fs sa . daemon.scripts write

The following command will grant the script server write access to
all subdirectories of your current directory (you could cd into a
particular directory and then run this command in order to grant
the script server write access to all subdirectories of that
directory):
    athrun scripts fssar daemon.scripts write

The following command will list the access control list for the
current directory:
    fs la .
