Lion Server file sharing

Hi guys, I have a client running Lion server 10.4, and roughly 5 Mac's around the office all running lion 10.4. Everything was setup and running smoothly until this morning when he lost all file sharing to the server. (Data is stored on the server and Mac's connect through finder>network>server) When hitting "connect as" there is no login window, the black bar just says "connecting" and doesn't get any further. I have tried restarting the file sharing service from the server, connecting manually via its IP with both AFP and SMB to no avail. I have also tried turning off AFP on the server and restarting that, as well as adding other shared folders, opening up permission etc. Hoping someone has an idea of what's going on!

No problem! We rebooted the server to no avail, and the client iMac. It's all sorted now, I was logged in remotely so I couldn't see all the machines at once, according to my client it just started working but I'm pretty sure there's some detail he left out in what he was doing. It did however seem to be an issue only on the one workstation so all good! Thanks for the quick response

Lion server file sharing issue with windows API read/write ini file (GetPrivateProfileString)

Hello,
I try to config lion server as file server for a windows application we use at work. All other computers are windows 7 or XP, lion server is the only mac. I choose lion server because it's size, quality and personal love of apple products.
10.7.2 lion server's samba file sharing works almost perfectly with all my windows machines, I can copy, delete, modify any text files or office files without any issue, but the most important windows application for my business doesn't work with samba file sharing. After some digging, I found it is because windows program can't read or write INI file stored on lion share. Windows API GetPrivateProfileString always returns empty if the INI file is store on lion share.
You can download a small application for read/write windows INI file from codeproject.com to test this problem:
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/files/ini.aspx
I can open/edit the in file using any text editor without any problem. The only problem is with those windows APIs. ACL is turned on for my lion share and assigned "delete" rights to samba users.
I install samba3 on the same server; it works perfectly with windows API. My windows program also works. Looks like there is something wrong with lion server's sambax.
I'd prefer to use built-in samba even I have samba3 working. Built-in samba is very immature right now, but considered how young it is, I will give apple some time to make it mature.
Does anyone have same issue or knows how to fix it?
Thanks,
Michael.

All the memory is fine. The server rarely if ever goes down when there are only around 10-12 users connected. When there are 20+ users connected and working heavily it goes down often. When I say working heavily, I mean they are transferring huge files to the SAN (100GB+), sometimes 5 at a time per user, and there are a bunch of others who are reading large video files at a minimum of 220MB/sec from the SAN.
Though this worked on Snow Leopard without any issues, Lion just doesn't seem to be able to handle it. The odd thing is, on Snow Leopard there was only a single 1GB ethernet connection to a NAS system, whereas with Lion we have a much more powerful machine with a 6-port 10GB ethernet card and a 4 lane 8GB fiber card to a true SAN. You would think that the newer scenario with Lion would handle far more users with ease.
So far, very disappointing with regards to Lion's file serving performance.

HELP: Yosemite server file sharing not working

Yosemite server and OS.latest
I have followed all the steps:
Set up DNS
Set up OD Master
Added users one at a time, then added them to groups
Added shares in File Sharing and allocated groups to shares
Just in case, I propagated permissions from storage tab
All relevant services turned on
Problem: when I test the logins from another local machine, either the credentials aren't recognised, or the only share is admin's drop folder; there should be 4 others.
Urgently need to get this running; what on earth can I have done wrong?
Thanks

"Once credentials are submitted, the share is mounted without the need to select it - is this normal?"
yes , unless there are other shares as options.
"The share I need reports: drwxrwx---@ 22 admin all-staff 748 16 Mar 14:38 Current Work, so that looks right."
only posix owner and group are allowed which is admin all-staff. Are these groups available in LDAP ?
really you should have something like
drwxrwxr-x+ 12 root admin 408 Mar 15 22:32 MyShare
that little + then allows other users or groups to access the filesystem.
do an " ls -le " to see more
sample;
drwxrwxr-x+ 12 root admin 408 Mar 15 22:32 MyShare
ls -le
drwxrwxr-x+ 12 root admin 408 Mar 15 22:32 MyShare
0: user:_spotlight inherited allow list,search,file_inherit,directory_inherit
---- then I can allow other access rules.
Using the Gui in osx server I gave read/write access to the IT_dudes Group on the Share. *note the group is an active directory group from the NT Domain named BETH.
This server is bound.
drwxrwxr-x+ 12 root admin 408 Mar 15 22:32 MyShare
0: user:_spotlight inherited allow list,search,file_inherit,directory_inherit
1: group:BETH\IT_Dudes allow list,add_file,search,add_subdirectory,delete_child,readattr,writeattr,readextat tr,writeextattr,readsecurity,file_inherit,directory_inherit

Lion Server File Sharing Crashes

We have a brand new Mac Pro (12 core with 64GB of RAM) running OS X Lion Server in a corporate environment. The server is running only file sharing and software update servers, and we have around 40 users who need to be connected over AFP at all times. This company runs 24/7 and we have an XSan environment using an ATTO Celerity 8GB 4 channel fiber card (84EN) along with a 6 port 10GB Ethernet card. The Ethernet card is configured in a link aggregation bond using ports 1-4. The idea is that clients who do not have fiber cards installed on their machines can still connect to the SAN via Ethernet and this file server. They AFP connect to the share, and of course the share is the SAN. It's a single mount point and everyone has read/write access.
The issue is that this machine keeps crashing (multiple times per day) and I cannot find any reason why. Syslog shows nothing of value and I've called into Apple Enterprise Support who also brought nothing to the table.
We initially had SMB and AFP file sharing activated but as soon as a Windows 7 client connected the machine was brought down. So, I disabled SMB via terminal (sudo serveradmin stop smb) and deactivated it via the Server app for the share point). That at least allows the machine to be up for 4-6 hours before crashing again.
This is seemingly the simplest of setups for file sharing and I would've thought that this beast of a machine would be able to handle being a file server without issue for far more than 40 clients. I'm seeing high CPU usage, which Apple support told me was perfectly normal (around 60% on the kernel_task process and around 55% on the AppleFileServer process). It also seems to consume all 64GB of memory, though it shows 60GB as inactive, but at the same time it's paging in and out.
Virtually all of the clients are running Lion (10.7.4), the server itself is running 10.7.4. There are a few ethernet connected clients running 10.6 along with two running 10.5. As I mentioned I disabled SMB so there are no Windows computers connecting to this machine at this time (though it would be nice to get that functionality back if AFP can be stabilized).
None of this makes any sense to me and I'm hoping someone can shed some light on this issue. This company simply cannot be down, especially not multiple times per day. The only way to bring things back and running from a crash is to hard boot the machine via the power button as you cannot perform a restart or a shutdown. Once the machine comes back up everything is back to working order for a few more hours until it happens again.

All the memory is fine. The server rarely if ever goes down when there are only around 10-12 users connected. When there are 20+ users connected and working heavily it goes down often. When I say working heavily, I mean they are transferring huge files to the SAN (100GB+), sometimes 5 at a time per user, and there are a bunch of others who are reading large video files at a minimum of 220MB/sec from the SAN.

10.8 Server file sharing problem

We have a new Mac mini with 10.8 and OS X Server app. The mini has direct attached storage and will be used mainly for File Sharing. There is a repeatable problem/bug with case sensitive folder names and file sharing. For example a folder named "Editorial" is inacessible via "Connect to Server" from a client on the LAN. The same folder with the same permissions, same everthing, except it is named "editorial" works perfectly. Change the uppercase E to a lowercase e and it works. The drive is formatted with normal HFS+. It is Not HFS+ case-sensitive. I have Xserves running 10.4, 10.5, and 10.6 for file sharing and none have this problem.
Has anyone else experieced this? Is there a fix? Other than making everything lowercase.

Simon Slavin United Kingdom
If you have a problem please start a thread of your own. Don't get us confused between solving two different problems.
Simon,
The subject of this thread is dealing with:
"Server 10.8 file sharing problem"
Specifically for direct attached storage file sharing permissions issue.
Client computers having issues with folder permissions
These are exactly my issues as well. I was hoping to try a solution here or maybe proffer a solution if found elsewhere. I did not realize each problem should be opened as a separate discussion....
Sulking back into the shadow...

Using Apple Server File Sharing

How does Apple Server work? Is it possible to just use the file sharing feature? I would like to set up a file sharing service similar to dropbox where users log in and can see there files as well as files that everyone can access. How do I set up the server is it run off my "computer" that acts as a server for the company? Or does Apple host it?
Any help or information would be greatly appreciated. I am trying to see how Apple Server works with the goal of being able to remotly access my files like Dropbox but without the file size limitation.

If you really want to learn more about OS X Server, I highly recommend the Apple Training Series books at Peachpit Press.
http://www.peachpit.com/store/product.aspx?isbn=0321775082
You can get either an eBook, or a real book.... or both. They're very well written. OS X Server works much better on an office LAN. Hosting an Apple file share over the internet can be done, but you're always going to have to deal with connection speeds when connecting from outside of your office network. You'll need a very fast internet connection that includes a very fast upload speed. Of course, you're always going to be limited by the slower connection. If the users are at home on a 3Mb/s DSL connection, and your server is attached to a 20Mb/s data connection, the users will download only at 3Mb/s, not 20.
I suggest that you don't make your own system a server. If you shut it down, users can't get into it. My rule about servers is that they should NEVER be someone's personal workstation. You should invest the money to do this right. For a small office, a Mac mini does a great job. For a larger one, a Mac Pro loaded up with RAM and lots of storage is a better choice. ALWAYS deploy a good backup solution. Time Machine is good, but CrashPlan Pro would be even better.

Mac OS X Server, File Sharing, Permission

Hi All,
          I’m trying to use Mac os X server Maverick in a small team within my
          organization. I was able to successfully install and setup the server, which
          resides in a local network. I did the following setup:
     1 ) Open Directory Setup
      2 ) File Sharing , /Users , available for home directory over AFP
      3 ) Created Network users with home folder pointing to /Users
      4 ) Bound Clients to the server
      5 ) XCode Server Setup with git repository
      Users now can login using their own account and their home folder
      is loaded from the server. Unfortunately there are issues. Clients are having permission issues,
      which we have never encountered on local machines before we switched to using XCode Server.
      Here is a list of some of the issues so far
      Xcode issues on client computer:
           a)   When creating a XCode project, it reports the error “Couldn’t not find build module Drawin” when clicking create
             button.I found online a workaround fix that supposedly works, which is to set "Enable Modules (C and Objective C)"
              to No. But we didn’t have to do this before using XCode server.
           b ) When committing to git repo , the following error happens “fatal: Repository has been updated ,
                but unable to write to new_index. Check the disk is not full or quota is not exceeded ,
                and then "git reset HEAD"   to recover” Another work around we found online is to do on the client,
               cp index backup ; mv backup index
       We don’t want to have to do this every time we create a project, what could be wrong with the setup?

You need to run Server Admin and click on the File Sharing icon at the top. Then click on Share Points, and Browse. You then browse to the folder you want to set the permissions on.
You will see in the bottom half of the window the current permissions. While in theory you can use just POSIX permissions, Snow Leopard prefers using ACL permissions. So as an example to set a folder to be only accessible by members of a specific group and to deny access to everyone else you would do the following.
Click on the + symbol at the bottom
A window will open listing all your users and groups, click on groups at the top
Find the special 'Everyone' group and drag it to the ACL section
Find the group you want to give access to and also drag that to the ACL section but make sure it is above the Everyone group as higher setting override lower settings
Set the Everyone group to Deny Read permission, this will prevent them being able to access this folder
Set the group you do want to have access to Allow Read or Allow Read/Write, the first would let them only be able to read, the second also allows them to create files or modify files.
Now click on the Save button in the bottom right.
You might also want to click on the gear wheel symbol and choose 'Propagate permissions' if you want to apply these permissions to all the files and folders within this folder.

The Windows SMB feature has file locking if multiple users are accessing the same file. Does Snow Leopard Server File Sharing (AFP) provide similar features?

The Windows SMB feature has file locking if multiple users are accessing the same file. Does File Sharing (AFP) on Snow Leopard Server provide similar services?

Were you ever able to solve this problem. I'm having similar issues since upgrading to snow leopard. Four macs connect to a Windows Server 2003 for shared files. Each user has full permissions & when we "get info" it shows read & write permissions. Two of the computers were running 10.4, two were running 10.5. Everything worked properly until upgrading to snow leopard. Some files let me copy, move, delete. Others either just hang up or we get a "no permission" error. Also getting a "pdf is in use" error, even when the file/folder doesn't contain a pdf. We had our IT rep check the server who said everything is in working order. They don't represent macs any longer but feel that it's a mac problem. I would have to agree since this problem only started after the upgrade, and the one machine that was not upgraded (still running 10.5.8) is not dealing with these problems.
Lastly, I would install 10.5 back on all of the computers if I could, but the leopard disk that came with one of the computers wouldn't work with the 2 machines running 10.4 and I didn't see it available at the apple store. I'll buy it if it's still available, but why wouldn't the disks that I have work?
Thanks for any help

OS X Server File Sharing slows down some time around 5 PM

We have a problem with our OS X Server file server becoming sluggish to browse and save files around 5 PM each day.
Historically we had this problem with Mac OS X Server 10.5.8 but it's also seems to be a problem with our new Mac Mini running OS X Server 10.10.
We have one IMAP account on the server that we use to archive about 18000 emails at 12 GB, stored under a number of folders. Could it be this that's causing the problem? I noticed on our 10.5.8 server that it used to process the email and use up gigabits of HD space in the process and then release it all again when it was done. The sluggishness seemed to coincide with this.

I know there are options in the policies section of the Open Directory area of Server Admin. Or, in Server App, you can click on Users and then if you click on the little gear thingy under the window displaying the users you can choose Edit Global Password Policy and a drop down window will show the same settings.

Server File Sharing unstable on mac and windows network on Mavericks and OSX Server 3.0

Since I've updated our mac mini server from Mountain Lion and OSX Server 2.X to Mavericks and OSX Server 3.0 we are having sharing issues with Windows (7 and 8) and OSX Mavericks users, not being able to access files on the mac mini server.
What I've notice is that OSX Serer 3.0 stop working and I have to restart the Mac Mini Server to make things start working again.
This was not happening with Mountain Lion and OSX Server 2.X.
On the Windows and OSX users what happen is the computers keep trying to connect to the server and are not being able to open or copy files. Again this is intermittent, and I suspect it might be a OSX Server bug.
Any one having the same problem or can give us and advice would be great help.
Thanks.
Andre Tenenbaum

I too am having this exact problem as well as a few of my network administrator contacts that have gone through the Mavericks / Server 3 upgrade.
It may be worth noting that before the upgrade I had run a mac mini server (core 2 duo) that never had any unintentional downtime, and the current mac server had never gone down or lost connection so I know it has nothing to do with user or network configuration.
NAS server hardware:
- Mac Mini core i5
- 16 GiB ram
- Promise Pegasus Raid5 external drive (thunderbolt)
I am NOT running time machine as the backup.
Everyting posted above is occuring although the rate at which my users lose acces is sporadic. Sometimes the server will stay up 24-36 hours and sometimes it will only stay up for around 4. Every user, every group loses acces AT THE EXACT SAME TIME EVERYTIME to EVERY SHAREPOINT...all of my local users as well as my remote users. All of my users are on Windows machines (mostly win7, but a couple of XP and 8 users as well). The share is accessed via a mapped drive using the format x.x.x.x/share and I have had 0 issues with getting users connected. The problem is 100% keeping them connected. When the users lose access the get the "drive cannot be accessed" error on their end, however when I check the server 3 app, it still shows all users connected and I have let it run for a few minutes and the idle times do change.
I also cannot see any spikes in the Activity monitor that might indicate a memory strain issue on the server side, but I assume that is because I am not watching the Activity Monitor at the moment everyone loses access.
Let me say that the SMB2 protocol does work much better when it actually works, much faster, but intermitent connectivity is a VERY SERIOUS ISSUE and has resulted in several corrupt files for my workers already. Also, because I was one of the unfortunate people that had the upgrade lock up on me and I had to restart it, I lost my 10.8.x recover backup and so I would have to do a clean install in order to restore my server back to its original state. I am also hesitant to do this because I would most likely only be able to download the Server3 app from the app store and I have not heard from apple or any other power user group on whether the bug is with the app or the OS.

OSX Server file sharing data location issues.

I have a mac mini running OSX Server on Mavericks. I also have a Lacie 2big nas running RAID 1 for Superduper! backups that is hooked up via thunderbolt to the mac mini. My problem is, even though my Service Data location is set to the mac mini's hard drive, all of the shared folder items are housed on the Lacie drive.
Is there a way I can move this data back to the hard drive and point the server to that location instead? I really don't want any services or data directly stored on the Lacie drive, it's mainly there in the event that the mac mini hard drive fails and I need a bootable copy so the business may stay up and running.

There are two possibilities: one is that your server is keeping all its server data on the external HD, the other is that your accounts are individually set up to each refer to that external HD.
Server.app
Click the line in the sidebar which has the server's name in it
Choose the Settings tab
Check the bottom line that says 'Service Data'
If that lists your external HD, just change it to the internal one, wait for it to make the change and you're done.
If not, then your accounts are individually set up to refer to the external HD. While there are bulk methods of moving them all over they are annoying and complicated and hard to describe. It would be simpler to use the Finder to copy your entire home folder structure across to your hard disk, then to go down the list of users, and for each user
Control-click on the user
pick 'Advanced Options...'
Change the Home folder to its new place
Once you're sure the new locations are working for all your users you can delete the home folder copies from the external hard disk.

Mavericks Server and AD File Sharing

I have been struggling with the setup of shared folders on a Mavericks Server with users connecting to it via our campus AD.
Have bound the server to the Active Directory on campus.
Created folders on a volume connected to the server for each of the individual instructors.
Activated file sharing within the server
Within Server - File Sharing - Clicked the "+" and added that folder.
Clicked the Edit permissions icon. The default is the local admin account of the Server. Changed the local account user to an AD user and give them Read/Write permissions for that folder.
Have lab machines that are bound to the AD.
Users log in via their AD credentials without a problem.
A local home managed account is created on that machine and is deleted on logout.
Have them go to the "Go" menu and connect to Server option.
Enter in the address of the server and connect with their AD username and password.
The problems are:
#1
Instructors create "DropOnly" folders within their share folder. They change the permission of "Everyone" to "Write Only"
Students connect the same way and drop folders into that "Drop Only" folder.
Instructors are not able to delete that folder after viewing it. Says they do not have the correct permissions.
Why are the folders that are put in there not taking on the permissions that allow the Instructor full control? (See screen shot of dropped in folder below)
#2
If the instructor looks at the permissions of their shared folder, Why is it that "everyone" says "no access" even though others can open it. (See Screen shot below)
Things do not seem as straight forward as they did in past server settings. While the creating of shared folders seems easier, the control of them seems less.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Pete

To connect up to 10 Macs for File Sharing, you do not need the complexity and restrictions of Server at all.
Create a new Account on the central machine, not an standard User or an Admin, but a Group, make the Group own the shared folder, and make everyone a member of the Group, with Read/Write access to the files.
System Preferences > Sharing > File Sharing ...
... allows you to specify how and what to Share.

Best Practises for File Sharing and Print Server on Windows Server 2012

Is it better to have File Sharing and Print Server installed on the same Windows 2012 Server ?
Or, they should be installed on 2 different Windows Servers ?
Hussien Sherief

It will work just fine to combine them.
But most people would recommend keeping functionality separate... if the budget allows. That whole "single point of failure" concept. If that server dies, you've lost both of those functions.

How can I allow network users to use File Sharing on 10.8 Server?

I am in the process of setting up a new OS X 10.8 Server. I have exported/imported the network users from my previous OS X 10.6.8 Server using Workspace Manager. I have re-entered the passwords of the users. I have existing clients running (stil logged in).
I have set up the File Sharing service in Server.app. I have several mount points. I have made the Users mount point available for home directories over AFP.
Now, the system administrator can connect to the server and get access to the file shares. So the basic file sharing system works.
Also: the users on a client can get there password verified (e.g. when unlocking screen protection) by the server. It is just AFP they can't get access to, while the system administrator account (OD /Local on the server) can be used. So, the password in the server is OK too. It seems to be a matter of privileges.
But no network user (OD user in directory /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 on the server) can get access. Where can I give network users privileges for File Sharing on the server?
I did try to add either the "Open Directory Users" group or a specific user that was imported into com.apple.access_afp. If I do that, there is partial success. I can connect to the server from the client with a user account other than system administrator from the server (but connecting is slow). But Mobile Home Sync does not work:

Hi Gerben,
Try creating a brand new user, that's not imported and see if that works. Every user/group has a little gear in the Server.app/Users or Groups which allows specific access to specific services, perhaps filesharing is off in that section?
Is your DNS setup properly? Can you verify that clients can see the FQDN of your server?
After setting up the Users folder for mobilehomes, did you check whether the group and the separate users have access to filesharing? I am able to select the correct homefolder /Users and restrict the homefolder size.
Goodluck!
Jeffrey
