Deletin files on a share

If I delete a file on my Mac, it is moved to the thrash.
If I delete the same file from a different computer, it is gone forever.
Isn't it time that files deleted on shares, whether SMB or appletalk, are moved to the thrash of the computer where it lives.
In the earlier days of DOS and MacOS, it was possible to recover most files that were deleted, but nowadays the thrash folder only applies to files deleted using Finder. Shouldn't Thrash handling be an inherent part of the file system, an thus be available for all kinds of file deletion...

But the file lives on the network drive or server, not on the local computer. When you delete a remote file, you're sending a command to the server to perform the deletion. For the file to be put in a local trash would mean moving the file to the local computer first, which doesn't make a lot of sense.
You should NEVER treat your trash/recycle bin as the place you can recover files from. ALWAYS have a proper backup of important data, whether it's local or on a network server.

Cannot open Office 2013 Excel, Word, PPT Files on Network Share

Cannot open Office 2013 Excel, Word, PPT Files on Network Share
I am having a problem opening any Office 2013 file when it is located on a network drive. I immediately get the error:
"Microsoft Excel cannot open or save any more documents because there is not enough available memory or disk space.
. To make more memory available, close workbooks or programs you no longer need.
. To free disk space, delete files you no longer need from the disk you are saving to."
It only occurs when I try to access the file when it is stored on a network share. I cannot open any word, excel or PPT files located on my file shares.
I am on Windows 8 (pro), part of a local domain based on Server 2003, and have administrator rights to the domain and the file share where the Excel file resides (and Word files -same problem). If I copy the file locally, I can either open
it directly, or right-click, go to Properties and 'un-block' the file and then open it. But it is impractical to keep doing this, as I edit different files from the directory tree all day.
I have bing'd and google'd this extensively, and the only answers I come up with do not work, such as going into the DCOM config system and changing the user from interactive to launching user, or vice versa, or even using a specific user - mine
with the password. Since the product is so young there aren't a lot of posts on this, and nothing has improved the situation.
Can you add any insight to this? I really want to use Office 2013, but this is such an obstacle I'm going to have to downgrade if this problem cannot be resolved. Thank you very much for any help you can offer.
Evan

Dear Evan,
If DCOM config solution did not work, I'd suggest narrow down the problem by trying to access another network share on another server, try to open an Office file there, do we still have the error? It could help us determine if the issue is on the client
machine or the server side.

Flat file connection: The file name "\server\share\path\file.txt" specified in the connection was not valid

I'm trying to execute a SSIS package via SQL agent with a flat file source - however it fails with Code: 0xC001401E The file name "\server\share\path\file.txt" specified in the connection was not valid.
It appears that the problem is with the rights of the user that's running the package (it's a proxy account). If I use a higher-privelege account (domain admin) to run the package it completes successfully. But this is not a long-term solution, and I can't
see a reason why the user doesn't have rights to the file. The effective permissions of the file and parent folder both give the user full control. The user has full control over the share as well. The user can access the file (copy, etc) outside the SSIS
package.
Running the package manually via DTExec gives me the same error - I've tried 32 and 64bit versions with the same result. But running as a domain admin works correctly every time.
I feel like I've been beating my head against a brick wall on this one... Is there some sort of magic permissions, file or otherwise, that are required to use a flat file target in an SSIS package?

Hi Rossco150,
I have tried to reproduce the issue in my test environment (Windows Server 2012 R2 + SQL Server 2008 R2), however, everything goes well with the permission settings as you mentioned. In my test, the permissions of the folders are set as follows:
\\ServerName\Temp --- Read
\\ServerName\Temp\Source --- No access
\\ServerName\Temp\Source\Flat Files --- Full control
I suspect that your permission settings on the folders are not absolutely as you said above. Could you double check the permission settings on each level of the folder hierarchy? In addition, check the “Execute as user” information from job history to make
sure the job was running in the proxy security context indeed. Which version of SSIS are you using? If possible, I suggest that you install the latest Service Pack for you SQL Server or even install the latest CU patch.

Very slow responce when working with Office file on DFS-Share

Very slow responce when working with Office file on DFS-Share
We have implemented the following configuration
Domain level Windows 2000. Two member servers with Windows Server 2008 R2, sharing the same DFS namespace with, at the moment, one folder target called Home.
Users complaining that the access to different MS Office files is very slow. Even creating a new MS Word document using right click context menu takes up to 4 minutes to open. Saving, for example, one singe Excel sheet takes also few minutes.
Tested with both, MS Office 2007 and MS Office 2010. Makes no difference. When using Office 2010 you can see the message like contacting:
\\DomainName\Root\Home\UserName. Other files like TXT, JPG or PDF are not affected.
What makes the thing really weird is the fact, that the behavior described above can absolutely change after client machine being rebooted, suddenly everything becomes very fast and this condition can revert back again just after the next
reboot.
Considerations until now:
1. This has nothing to do with the file size. Even tiny files are affected.
2. AD Sites are configured correctly and the client workstations see themselves in the correct sites.
3. This is not an Office issue. If I map my folder target not as DFS, but directly as shared network drive
\\ServerName\Root\Home\UserName , everything functions as expected
What makes me suspicious: when using f.e. TCPView to monitor connections, I can see, that each time I make any operation on an office file, there will be a connection established to one of the domain controllers, sometimes to remote ones,
located in other countries. But on the other side, even if the connection is established to the nearest DC, operations are still very very slow!
Just forget to say. All clients are Windows 7
Thanks to all who respond.

Dear all,
sorry for the delayed reply. The problem has been solved now and since September 19th. everything is functioning as expected.
What was done:
Deleted replication targets excepting the initial ones
Carefully recreated folder targets
Deleted and recreated replication groups
Disabled SNP features on both namespace servers
Created EnableTCPA registry entry
Checked that the following Updates are installed

Need help accessing itunes files on a share

My roommate was running out of space on her macbook, so I created a share on my iMac which has 1TB of space.
We moved all of her music from her computer to the shared space on my computer
I redirected iTunes on her computer to make the share on my computer the default path to play music from
I opened finder on her computer and dragged all the music into iTunes. Everything worked fine. It was playing the music files from my computer on her iMac.
On her macbook, I unmounted the connection to her share on my iMac and reconnected. She can still read and write to the Itunes folder on my iMac, but now when we try to launch iTunes, a message comes up saying "The iTunes Library file is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have write permission for this file." So now I can't even run iTunes because it automatically closes after this message comes up.
This doesn't make sense because a) she does have write read/write permissions b) the songs worked just fine until i unmounted/remounted and c) even though Itunes says we don't have access, we do because we can still navigate to the music files on the share from her macbook.
Help! Thanks in advance.

Update:
I removed the "iTunes Library" file from Home>>Music>>iTunes, which allowed me to get back into iTunes, but I don't know how to connect to the files without it locking up again in the event that the mount to her share on my iMac becomes unmounted again.

Why did I have to enable Windows File Sharing to share files between two Mavericks iMacs?

File Sharing failed between my Mavericks iMacs. The console logs showed that the target iMac saw the ntlmv2 protocol as unknown to the kdc. I fixed it by enabling Windows File Sharing on the target Mavericks iMac. I had tried disabling SMB on both iMacs and leaving AFP on, but then nothing happened when I tried to connect. Why did I have to enable Windows File Sharing to share files between two Mavericks iMacs?

When you enable file sharing you need to have either SMB (Windows) or AFP (historically Apple-native) file sharing checked. The default in Mavericks is SMB, and not AFP.
If you uncheck both, then the system will turn off file sharing. Apple supports the use of both SMB and AFP connections in Mavericks, so with only AFP enabled you should have been able to establish a connection, but there could be a small bug or configuration-specific snafu that you're encountering.
With AFP enabled only, try pressing Command-K in the Finder to open the Connect To Server dialogue, and in here enter the address to the system using afp:// as the protocol, such as the following (the name can be looked up in the Sharing system preferences):
afp://my_imac.local

Can't compress files on webdav share using Finder

Hi to all!
I have webdav share (server is on FreeBSD) connected to my MBP. I can read, write, delete files on this share but when I try to compress file on this share (rightclick on file and select "Compress" in menu) I allways get an error popup: "The operation can't be completed because the disk if full." with "zip" icon on it. I know that disk isn't full.
How to fix this?

as a workaround I use Automator script "Junecloud Automator Actions" to make clean archive

Full permission but unable to create file on network share

Hi all,
We have a file server running Server 2003 R2 which has multiple shares configured.
On one of the shares, there is one user who cannot create files on a share, even though they have full control permissions to the share and all subfolders
So far I have:
Added username specifically to permissions
Confirmed at each folder level that the permissions are replicating
Removed and re-added permissions
Confirmed that user cannot create files on any folder within the share
Checked effective permissions which return they should have full control
Checked event logs and found no errors
Copied the user account in AD and logged into to the same server and was able to create files on share
They are connecting via RDS running on Server 2008 R2 enterprise and accessing the share via mapped drive
Any suggestions?

Hi,
Do you mean that if you directly logon the Server 2008 R2 not using RDS, then you can create files on share? Please refer to the thread below to check if it helps:

How to download file from google share drive on Mac Minin

Detect an open file on a share before the folder is moved

I'm adding an archive feature to a labview application.
It will archive all the files and subdirectories within the directory I point to.
My challenge is as follows: The directory is on a network share drive so before the VI moves the directory to the archive location it needs to know if any files are open. If any are open then it would try again later. If the labview move function errored out before it moved a directory with open files it would be the perfect solution but it doesn't function this way - it errors after it moves everything except the open files. Moving all closed files then moving the others when they become available isn't an option for me.
In researching this it appears I need to access some kind of network management interface to get this info.
Does anyone know what resource I could use for this? I thought "active directory services", accessed through .net, but it seems "user centric (namespace)" not file status centric - not sure though - haven't worked with ADS much and find it less than user friendly to research.
I figure there has to be some mechanism I can hook into programmatically as a network client to check if any files within a directory are open.
My application will run on a network client and I don't have access to the server/s hosting the share.
I'm sure others have encountered this situation or maybe you could point me to another forum for this?
Cheers,
Christopher

Hi Cristopher,
It seems like the best way to achieve this functionality would be to use two steps. First, check if any of the files in the directory are open, then create the archive only if none of the files are found to be open.
You may want to check out the following page: How Can I Check if a File is Already Open? The issue of checking for applications being run on different machines within a network is addressed there, so it may be a good resource for you. There are also several other Knowledge Base and Developer Zone articles linked to that page that should be helpful.
I hope that helps!

Copy file from SMB share to Desktop permissions

I have connected to a SMB share point (Windows Server)and copy a file to my desktop (Mac OS X 10.6.4).
The file on my desktop shows I have the read and write access, however, everyone has no access.
I could not get the system administrator to change on the server side. Is it possible to make any changes from my machine to make at lease every has read only access?
Thanks in advance.

I downloaded D2KWUtil from the link suggested by you. It has very nice example demo form. But the documentation provided says following
Using D2KWUTIL in Web Deployed Applications
The use of this library is not supported with Web deployed applications.
In a web deployment scenario not all functions within D2KWUTIL will work. Any function that interacts with the User Interface (such as those in the WIN_API_DIALOG package) will fail.
Any interaction with the O/S by other functions will all be executed on the NT server and will act within, or return information pertinant to, the environment on that machine. For instance GET_COMPUTER_NAME will return the Server’s name, not the name of the computer that the Client browser is running on. Likewise COPY_FILE will copy files in the Forms Server not on the Client.
Functions such as those in WIN_API_BITOP will continue to work without change.
so this will not work in web deployed application.
Any other suggestion?
Thanks
