Permissions are not shown correctly in Get Info on Snow Leopard client, using Tiger server w/ ACL's

Invoking "Get Info" on a file or folder which is on a shared volume hosted by a G5 running Server 10.4 fails to show meaningful permissions when done from a 10.6 iMac.  It says only that the user has "custom permissions", which is true since there are ACL's in operation.  However, the Owner and Group POSIX settings are not shown, only the Everyone setting shows, making it impossible to determine which user created the file (in order to resolve issues when permissions prevent intended action).  The same file or folder will show Owner and Group on 10.5 systems, as well as at the 10.4 Server itself, so we do have a workaround.  I have noticed, though, that I have run into permissions restrictions where I should not, such as creating a folder on a shared volume using a 10.6 system, and then not being able to save into that folder from the same system/user.
Is there something about the implementation of ACL's in Tiger that confounds Snow Leopard's Finder?

Hi,
I did two things to get it working, and haven't taken the time to sort out which did it.  But it is working so it's good enough for me.
First I followed TeenTitan's suggestion, and also checked "Allow printing from the internet".  I'm behind a firewall so not too concerned I'll get someone's odd photo on the printer.
Second I went back to server admin, selected the queue under queues in the Print service, then selected IPP and deselected LPR.  Bonjour went grey but stayed checked.
After this I see the printer with "@ server name" appended, and it added the printer drivers like it should.
So all working well.

  • Permissions are not displaying correctly on Yosemite server

    My file and folder permissions are not displaying correctly on my Yosemite server when viewed from a Yosemite client.
    I have set these permissions from the server app on the server and have added local network groups for the appropriate folders on the share.  When checked from the server's finder, everything looks correct.  The server is setup for both AFP and SMB on file sharing.  I have also tried setting permissions from the server's finder and seemed to make no difference.
    When logged into from local or VPN Yosemite clients using AFP, the permissions do not show anything but postgres user and everyone group.  Even though they should have network groups such as skoogfinancial, skoogmarketing, etc.
    The server does seem to enforce the permissions correctly though a user cannot get into folders he does not have permissions for.
    Therefore, it seems the server is enforcing correctly, but a user may not understand what is going on as the permissions list doesn't list anything meaningful.

    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, you can’t boot in safe mode.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • The maximize/minimize and close and buttons are not shown correctly when FF windows is maximized.

    I have the same problem on all my computers, one running Windows 7 and two with Vista.
    The three buttons in the upper right corner of the FF windows are not shown correctly. They are soft of cut off in the middle when the FF window is maximized.

    It is possible that the screen is too wide or too high and that the scroll bars fall off.<br />
    Open the system menu via Alt+Space and see if you can resize that window.<br />
    If that works then close Firefox to save that setting.<br />

    Hi,
    I'm having exactly the same problem with my 80gb ipod on my new laptop which is also running Windows 7 64 bit and iTunes 10.1.1.4.
    I initially just tried syncing photos and according to iTunes it was still syncing after 4 hours, this was for 6700 photos and I wasn't asking for full resolution, but iPod just said Connected - Eject before disconnecting. I couldn't disconnect and in the end had to close iTunes before disconnecting, then there were no photos on the iPod.
    Disconnected, rebooted then when I connected the iPod I got the message that it was synced to another PC which I expected so i click to erase and synch, iPod initially showed synching then went to Connected - eject message but itunes was saying "finishing synch" it showed this for hours and out of 6543 songs on the PC it was onlt showing 6002 on iPod. I stopped the synch trie dejecting but got same message Iancenaz got. Again had to close iTunes before I could disconnect iPod safely.
    I'm going to try synching it back on mhy old laptop which is running Windows XP and an older version of iTunes as I suspect its either a Windows 7 or iTunes 10 problem.

  • Placed PNG images which are made in 3ds max are not shown correctly in Ilustrator

    Hello,
    Why placed PNG images (renders) which are made in 3ds max (and then photoshoped) are not shown correctly in Ilustrator. Images appear very noise so you can't see almost a thing. the same pictures (renders) made in Revit appear ok.
    Is there a solution to solve this issue?
    Thanks.

    You would have to provide screenshots of how it looks in PS, including the channels visible. MAX may have embedded extra channels that throw off AI. And of course check whether your PNG is actually 8bit, not 16bit.

  • German umlauts are not shown correctly, when a received e-mail is opened the first time. What can I do?

    When I open a received e-mail the first time, German umlauts (ä, ö, ü) are not shown correctly. Instead of them there are characters like §,$. When I close the e-mails and open them again the German umlauts are shown correctly. I don't know how to solve that problem. Who can help me?

    Fascinating. Sounds like an inconsistency between the encoding being used and the encoding being declared. I can't think why it should change when you re-open the message, unless Thunderbird is adding a correct encoding declaration.
    (Most users complain about it working in the opposite direction; messages stored as drafts often restore with damaged "special" characters such as smart quotes, accented characters and umlauts.)

  • Some fonts are not shown correctly in LabVIEW 2012

    I found a bug related with fonts in LabVIEW2012 f3 KR.
    - When I select NI7SEG in font selection dialog, right font is not shown in the example box.
    - Draw text at point.vi shows same problem for some fonts while other fonts are working.
    I reported it to Korean NI. As far as I know, this was not reported in previous versions and I couldn't find any related documents in Google. 
    So, here I would like to know whether it is related with only Korean version. Please let me know if English version is OK. 
    * OS: Windows 7 32bit KR

    Just now, I installed LabVIEW 2012 f3 (32-bit, English) and checked for the issue. But the font(NI7SEG) was not shown properly in VI either.
    - Both of Korea and English version of LabVIEW 2012 on Win 7 Korea OS shows wrong results. It is same on 64-bit OS.
    - LabVIEW 2010 but on same PC shows correct fonts.
    Is there a limit of number of fonts in LabVIEW? There are more than 100 fonts are shown in the "Selection Font" dialog and I can divide them into 3 groups by sequential order. I find that all fonts in the 3rd group are not applied correctly.
    (1st group)
    Arial Unicode MS...
    Bookshelf Symbol 3....
    Windings 3
    (2nd group)

  • Symbol characters are not shown correctly in webbrowser

    Hello,
    I have migrated my Forms 6i-application to Forms 11G R2 (11.1.2.0).
    Most problems I have solved. But now I see that Symbol-Characters in boilerplate-text in Formsbuilder are shown correct, but in the web they appear as "translated". In my case the Omega is turned to W.
    In the registry.dat I placed Symbol to be carried to Symbol because I read java could use Symbol.
    But I am wrong.
    Do you know what I must do to get the boilerplatetext shown in the rigth way?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Java not working correctly in any browsers on snow leopard

    In very recent months, I have experienced problems with java and many of its applications. But now it doesn't work well at all. For example, if I try to go to Minecraft Classic in Safari, it only gives me a black screen so the graphics part is not displaying correctly. I know everything else is working because the game centers the curser in the middle of the screen, and you can pause the game and so on. What is going on with Java? Why can't the company itself just make it? Why does apple allow Adobe Flash to have Adobe's own plugin, but Apple doesn't allow Java's plugin? Things would be so much better that way.

    I think we are in the same boat; I just posted here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/15791350#15791350

  • Dates are not shown correctly

    By accident I just noticed that dates are shown quite messy on my MBP with OS-X Lion 10.7.4 for some odd reason I can't find.
    It doesn't matter if I have the dates shown in their long form or short form (see screenshot). I had never seen this before, so my reckoning is that it started quite recently.
    The error is probably also responsible for some odd behaviour in certain folders. The Pictures and Download folders now have a funky top bar and I can not sort files anymore based on, for instance, dates or anything for that matter (see screenshot)
    I found that this problem  extends to MS Office 2011 for Mac as well. Notably when I tried to set my Out of Office message in Outlook. The selection box for dates translated 2012 to something like 201220. When I verified my OoO message using a windows outlook client, it turned out the date was set to the year 2020. Obviously I would not have any clue about my availability then just yet, so it's quite annoying actually.
    And not just the OoO message is impacted, also other things in Office for Mac. Check out the screenshot of a standard reminder pop up below:
    The System Preferences don't show anything odd though. Time and date is set automatically by the Apple Europe server (Apple Europa (time.euro.apple.com))
    I so hope anyone can help; thanks in advance for trying!
    Cheers,
    -Jan

    Thanks, this solved the date issue.
    However, it didn't solve the problem I experience in the Download and Pictures folder (not able to sort on collums). As it appears to be a different problem I'll start a new thread for that.
    Thanks again!!

  • Files from Windows 7 are not alphabetized correctly on OS X, and can match identically named files in the same folder

    I receive MS Word files from students using Macs or Windows-based computers.  This year, files prepared by students using Windows 7 are not alphabetized correctly on my Mac (under Snow Leopard or Mountain Lion).  The same four students keep having their files put at the END of the alphabetical sort by name, even though the files should appear earlier in the list.  I have to copy the file contents and paste the contents into a new document to get the new document to appear in the right order, and if I do so, then BOTH the old and new files appear in the Finder, even though the names appear to be identical!  So can have to files with the same name in the same folder, which ought to be impossible.  Does anyone have any idea what's going on?

    Bingo! 
    The problem is not the letters themselves, but non-letter characters in the file name; this showed up with the fixed-width fonts. The apparent duplicates and mis-sorting are caused by dashes, which differ because they're done as en-dashes in one file name and em-dashes in the other file name, or by curly or straight apostrophes.  I didn't see that in the Finder window.
    I never saw this behavior before this year.  Last year, when I was using a Mac for the first time, I did not see any such problem, even though my students' files were named using the same conventions. When I was using a Windows-based laptop before that, I never saw the problem.
    Windows must do something to style the non-letter characters differently than a Mac.  Is there any place in Windows Explorer or the OS X Finder that styles characters this way?  I can see this being a big problem for someone who needs to sort very important data by name, when the files are coming from different operating systems!
    (I just Googled en-dash, em-dash, and curly quotes with file names, and found a good number of posts on various sites about similar problems based on ASCI character coding, html coding, Windows Explorer, and other applications.  Sometimes the files don't appear at all, because the application reading the file name can't deal with a certain ASCI code.  What a mess.)
