I have problems with Groups (10.3.9 so obviously no ACLs). When I
create a new group, users are not able to access files with group
permissions (some can, some can't - most can't). If they are the
owner it is fine. Most users (all but one - a tiger mac) are running
Windows XP Pro. No guests are allowed on AFP or SMB. Its a PDC and
WINS server, no active directory or anything funky. Everything works
fine from the mac (afp), all the problems seem to be with windows
clients!
I have recently changed the disks in the server - 2 Mirrored drives,
so the disks 'should' be good, but I have run diskutil and it has
identified 8 problems ...... overlapped extent allocation (file
1229921d) etc. etc.
Not sure what the diskutil error is but it does not seem able to fix
it. Each time I run it finds the same things again!
The group issue is a bit of a nightmare though!
The existing groups work fine and I can add users, rename the groups,
do anything I like to them and they work well. Any new groups however
exhibit this weird behaviour which I don't understand!
