Xserve and Applescript

G'day folks,

We've run into some serious AS problems since changing our server to an
Xserve. Virtually all of our production applescripts have broken in one way
or another. Most of the them access files from the server which are required
to be read onto the local machine where they are processed and actions
taken.

These mostly deal with Quark - placing ads on pages, archiving and EPSing
etc. The problem seems specific to later versions of OS9 - 9.1 and 9.2.
Older 8.6 and 9.0.4 users seem to be OK.

Can someone tell me if there was any major change in the way the 'read'
function works in the newer systems? Our ad system creates a plain text
file called 'to0814.ads' and 9.2 machines can't 'read' the file. (And no,
we're not asking for type 'TEXT')

I'd be very interested in hearing from anyone with access to an Xserve who
might be able to test 'read' for me

cheers

kim
