Permalink not working

  The address of my WordPress site is something like: http://mycompany.com/personnel/myname
  The installation folder is: /www/personnel/myname

  When I change Permalink to Post name, it requires me to create an .htaccess file with the following content:

  <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
  RewriteEngine On
  RewriteBase /personnel/myname/
  RewriteRule ^index.php$ - [L]
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
  RewriteRule . /personnel/myname/index.php [L]
  </IfModule>

  I only have the write permission to the folder /personnel/myname/ and not to the root. Thus I created the required .htaccess file in there, but then obtained 404 error when accessing.

  Hope somebody can help.

  Thank you very much in advance!

  Using phpinfo() I see that mod_rewrite is one of the Loaded Modules, so it is already enabled.
