Have ASIP 6.3 on a G4 with 512 ram. MM ver 1.4.1 on all clients and admin machine.
Problems started with one user getting a "LaserWriter 8 cannot be started due to an internal error -5000" this continued to follow her to different machines so I tried deleting her printing prefs and then later even replacing them with a known working users copy. After that she was able to print so I thought problem solved. However, 3 days later she starts having the same problem along with allot of other students. At the same time I notice that all the machines have the same time setting which is about 6 hrs slow. To add to the weirdness even after I go to system access and change the time to the correct settings, it reverts back to the previous one as soon as it goes back to the log in screen. Soon after I discovered this problem none of the members in the students group could print. All showed error above.
I then tried deleting the .idx files for the users, groups, and computers. Following guide from MM: "How to recover an unusable database" This did not work either so still following the guide I tried replacing the "multi user items" folder with a new copy and then relocating the original Users folder (from the multi user items folder) into the new copy. Unfortunately when I restarted the machine after turning the MM extension back on the server froze halfway through startup and now when I open MM none of my users or groups are there.
I still have all of the users files and documents how do I get them back into MM?
