| Your report about this has been passed on to me. The distiller and exchange
| copies on Athena in the acro locker are not for general Athena use- there is
| a statement about this in the README.athena file at the top of the locker
| (/mit/acro/README.athena); if you need to use these for educational purposes
| involving MIT courses please contact the Athena Faculty Liaisons at x3-0115
| or f_l@mit.edu to gain access.

Perhaps the error could be made to be more informative?

Most people (especially regular users) aren't very likely to read
locker READMEs and the error doesn't really suggest an authorization
problem.
