Why would you want to write to that directory?

I have no idea - just supposing something needs to be created there when the expect "spawn" command runs.

BTW, just wondering, have you considered key authentification rather than using password?

Yes, I may move to key authentication at some point.

Hm, those permissions look ok. I'm afraid I don't know why expect fails for you, while you can still launch new terminals fine (they use the same mechanism).
