every now and then - for no logical reason at all (that I can see),
the two folders in within this share return a message to the client
that they do not have permissions to access it. Logging out and
back in does not help. When I check the permissions on the server
itself, all is fine. Permissions remain set for user/groups/
everyone etc... To remedy this, I literally have to make a non
permanent change to one item (usually I just click on the 'Everyone
tab but change no setting) and then 'Save' and 'Refresh'. When the
client logs back in, permissions are back to 'normal' again despite
not changing a thing. Any ideas why Tiger Server and the clients
seem to 'disagree' every now and then despite the proper settings?
I'd be interested to see whether in such situations the client still
has access to the folders via the Terminal or Open/Save dialogs ?
I've had a fair few instances where the Finder would simply have it
wrong, and trashing the local mcx cache then logging out and back in
would often fix it.
