L commented on VFS-617:
-----------------------

The thing is: this operation would always fail, no matter where it is invoked, 
on move() or on login, if exec channel is not allowed or id command is not 
present.

I actually was forced to patch commons-vfs locally. I have added a new SFTP 
configuration option in class SftpFileSystemConfigBuilder, which I called 
hardcodedRWXPermissions. When true, doIsExecutable/doIsReadable/doIsWriteable 
always return true. This way I avoid executing "id". Instead I rely on jssh to 
report errors if the actual file operation fails. Works like a charm.

> isReadable fails if unable to determine group identity

> The problem is the method is using 
> return getPermissions(true).isReadable()
> The folder *is* readable without these permissions, and so should be set to
> return getPermissions(false).isReadable()
> Which correctly allows the system to identify a readable folder without 
> adding unnecessary restrictions.
