Thank you Beech.
I was entering the password of the user.
When I entered root's password the script containing mkdir worked.

One remaining question. Is there any time limit on having root access?
I mean will root access remain until the user exits?

Thanks again


No, once a users SSH session times out/is closed the root provledges are lost and you have to SU again. If they remain logged in they keep root privlidges (sp!) until they log out.
