I can't open a directory in my terminal.

Hi,

... new to programming.

Taking a OS course and my professor gave us files to reference in a directory located at ~agw/class/os/share/proj3. But when I typed this into the terminal I keep getting a permission denied error message.

[lastname@erdos ~]$ ls
dead.letter  Desktop  Documents  Downloads  Music  Pictures  private  Public  public_html  Templates  Videos
[lastname@erdos ~]$ ~agw/class/os/share/proj3
/u/sobolev/agw/class/os/share/proj3: Permission denied.
[lastname@erdos ~]$ 

I'm not sure what I am doing wrong. Ive opened shared directories for this class before and had no issues.

thanks

I could be mistaken, but if what you're trying to do is enter the directory, you need to use the 'cd' command.
cd ~agw/class/os/share/proj3

Oh wow *facepalm* ... completely forgot.
