Re: Help with drop boxes on Windows Server

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:

Inherting to Files only:
read attributes, create files, create folders, write attributes, write extended attributes, read permissions


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.

I reported this as a bug, and it was marked as a duplicate. So while I really didn't find much out there about this problem, apparently it's nothing new. FYI!
