Did you have a look at section 1.2.7 I/O Restrictions of the documentation?
My setup is:
allow read/restrict write
permit read/write in current directory
disable starting other programs
I do most if not all my raytracing from an account that has admin
privileges, but I have several restricted accounts that pov runs just fine
with those settings .... so as Chris offered perhaps a bit more
troubleshooting might be in order to determine what exactly is failing.
