Command line permission problems

Hello-

I'm having a heck of a time with Panther and the command line. Has a lot changed? It seems that a lot of the stuff I used to do doesn't work any more. A'm I missing something? Here is an example for my 10.2 machine trying to copy a folder named ring at the root level of the HD to the remotely mounted (via appletalk) 10.3 machine.

bash-2.05a$ cd /
bash-2.05a$ sudo cp -R ring /Volumes/MacintoshHD/users/admin
Password:
cp: /Volumes/MacintoshHD/users/admin/ring/client: Permission denied
bash-2.05a$

Where client is a folder inside of ring.

Where am I going wrong here??

did you do a "repair permissions" on the 10.3 machine?
can you do a "ls -a" so we can see the drwxrwxrwx lines?
can you use rlogin to get to that machine, or even ftp? maybe the problem is with afp over TCP/IP.
