Don't know if this is your problem or not, but the socket perms might be wrong Doug Alcorn (513) 295-2844
Hi. I'm new to the list. Have been using
screen on a limited basis for a few years.
Neither I nor my *nix admin can see
why I can't get multiuser to work. Details are below, but in summary, it
looks like we have privileges and group membership set up correctly. But
I get nothing but "Attach attempt with bad
PID (###)!" errors when
attempting screen -x.
Does anyone have any ideas on what we're
missing? One basic question: is a confirmation given upon successful completion
of an addacl command? If so, maybe that's where this is failing since there's
no message given.
Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

Then this error is presented on ownerid session:
