Hello Jay,

anyone know the syntax for this?

i've tried everything. my latest try is...

chmod -R -f 755 /home/jvaughn/.ssh/

Syntax is correct.

I get - 001-0011 Error found getting current working directory. Permission
denied.

That is related that you try to run that command from your cwd (current working directory, which is changed by a cd command) which is either no longer existing or you have no (longer) access rights (r) for. This no-rights can also happen anywhere higher in the directory tree.

What's the output of pwd (print working directory)?

:wq! PoC
