I'm beginning to see it's a permissions issue... Although I don't know how to approach it, as like I said, I have every permission you can think of set to this mac os x user.
Does your webserver run as the user 'rjohari'?
When you say "webserver", are you talking about my Apache Web Server, or the mounted share called "foresight" ?

Apache runs as a pre-specified user (usually "nobody") and group, and adheres to the permission level of that user/group. Look in your httpd.conf for what these values are. You *could* change how Apache runs, but I would leave that as is, and give Apache access to only the areas it needs access to (ie permissions on dirs and files). -- John C.
