Full ACK, the 777 was only the short way of checking if it is a permissions problem in the first place. In addition to what Sean wrote above - if you're running the DRb server it's this process that needs write access, not your mongrels (as they will only talk to the DRb server). Won't matter if you use the same user for mongrels and DRb, though. So once you know the user, give him write permissions and revert the permissions to something more restrictive again.
