Re: desktop icons won't open

If the server was configured correctly, the root login should be able to repair permissions on all users on a disk - if you have enabled it it netinfo manager.

root=superuser

users=subjugated by root when it comes to things like this

On my server 10.2.8 I have noticed all of a sudden that you can't open
any desktop icons. When you double click them they start to open but
then nothing happens. You have to use the "go to" or use the dock and
then they open. You can't even open up the HD icon. Anyone know what
that is from and how to fix it?
