This is because you do not have write permissions for that
directory.  I don't know why you wouldn't, and there are several
possibilities.  Are you supposed to have full or read-only access
there?  What access method are you using?  Do you have a real
account on the server machine?  What OS is the server running?
Is the administrator using Unix groups to control access, or
ACLs?
