OS X Mac Server with an NFS mount to a volumes on a Unix server.
A client authenticates to the OS X server via Appleshare over IP. The
GUID and UID on the Workgroup Manager on the OS X server matches the
GUID and UID on the Unix server.
Most of the time a Mac client logs in and maps a volume, any
files/folders created by the Mac client should have a default
permission value of 775 (User RWX, Group RWX and Others R-X).
On occasion, on the Unix server side, files/folders somehow get a
permission value of 755 (User RWX, Group R-X and Others R-X).
This means that though the owner has full RWX permissions, the members
of the group only have R-X permissions.
Can anyone tell me the answer to this question: Is it the Mac client,
OS X Server or Unix Server that is causing the intermittent issue?
Has anyone come across this issue?
