thanks a lot, but the following driver error is still prompted as follows:
   
  GRASS 6.1.cvs (spearfish60):~>v.db.connect -p map=roads driver=dbf
  Vector map <roads> is connected by:
  layer <1> table <roads> in database <home/xxx/spearfish60/PERMENANT/dbf/>
  hoguh driver <dbf> with key <cat>
  GRASS 6.1.cvs (spearfish60):~>g.copy vect=roads,roads_local
  COPY [roads at PERMANENT] to current mapset as [roads_local]
  DBMI-DBF driver error:
  Cannot open dbf database: roads
   
  WARNING: Cannot open database 'roads'
  no database is open
  WARNING: Cannot copy table
  WARNING: Cannot copy roads at PERMANENT to current mapset as roads_local

try testing/connecting to a database driver with the db.connect module.
