Are there any workarounds besides changing the permissions on the

These permissions work for us; some are not necessary for Macs, but
are for Windows (we have both using these drop folders):
Files Only:
Read Attributes
Create Files/Write data
Create Folder/Append Data
Write Attributes
Write Extended Attributes
This Folder and subFolders:
Read Attributes
Create Files/Write data
Create Folder/Append Data
Write Attributes
Write Extended Attributes
Read Permissions
Thanks for the suggestion. I was pretty sure that's basically what we
were already trying, but I followed your suggestion on a second
server. The original one is running an Active Directory, and I'd
found some indications on MacWindows that this might be part of the
problem (even though the Mac clients aren't bound to AD, they
authenticate to the share with AD users). So the second server is a
test rig running Win2003 Server that doesn't have an AD.
I created a share, and gave the Everyone group Full Control over it
in the Share Permissions. For the share folder itself, Administrators
have full control, "teacher" and "student" have read/execute,
applying to this folder only. I also turned off inheritance from the
parent.
I then created a single folder inside the share, intended to be a
drop box. The folder gives "teacher" full control. For "student", I
made:
Inheriting to This Folder & Subfolders:
traverse folder, list folder, read attributes, read extended
attributes, create files, create folders, write attributes, write
extended attributes, read permissions (everything but delete, change
permissions, and take ownership)
So I believe I reproduced your setup, except with even more
permissions. The result is the same. When copying into the drop box
folder from the Finder, student gets a permissions error, and a 0-
byte file is created on the share. When copying from the command
line, everything works. This is using client 10.4.3. I tried updating
to 10.4.4 and it didn't make any difference. I'm going to try this
from a clean install of 10.4, but after that I think it has to be a
Finder bug.
Thanks,
Matt
