    hi all,

    i followed Jason Bruder’s article on setting up a shared network library folder using 10.3.5 server. the problem is, once i added a mount to /Shared Items/Library my other automounts get confused.

    these are my mounts-
    ==> 3 objects
    [

    _lookup_agent: DSAgent
    _lookup_validation: 1095796872

    if i browse the /Shared Items/Library folder the folder "Fonts" appears and all is good, but if i select my automounted Groups folder i see the contents of my /Shared Items/Library/Fonts folder. so it’s basically one or the other… guest access is turned on.

    anyone?

    thanks,

    Groups sharepoint – custom mountpath= /Mounts/Groups

    i orginally had my groups folder mounted under /Network and the same things were happening with my network home folders mount 🙁

    yes, it is a group folder created using sudo creategroupfolder. nothing funky…

    okay, i changed the group folder to user home directory… it now appears under /Network/Servers/ but i’m still seeing the same problems 🙁

    i browse /Network/Library – correct folders displayed, go to /Network/Servers/my.server.com/Groups – correct folder displayed -> back to /Network/Library – contents of group folder appears??? /Network/Server/Users/MyUsers display groups folder as well!

    it seems that i can only use one automount at a time…

    it’s all working now… it seems i had to reselect the group folder in wgm and set the login prefs again.

    thanks,
    charles
