   I don't know why your having problems. I run slackware myself and have had   
   problems with permissions at times. Maybe a file was created by root and others   
    can't read it?   
      
   When I've had problems I chown the directory along with all the files and   
   directories within.   
      
   chown -R username:group /sbbs   
      
   If you run that command as root it'll change the ownership of all the files and   
    directories in /sbbs to the user and group you provide.   
      
   I hope that'll help.
