ParticipantI have some folders on a share point that autmount for certain user groups. They show up ok (except the icons are “?” until I click on them for some reason–posted this in another topic). However, the users can read the folders but not write to them. They have ACL permissions set up for full control and Cmd-I lists them having “custom” permissions. If I eject the share and manually afp connect (using the same credential information), I have full read/write privileges.
I have noticed when it automounts, the connection listed in the AFP server in Server Admin is listed as Guest instead of the appropriate user and things no longer work when I turn off guest access in the AFP server. I realize this is probably the root of the issue, but don’t understand why it’s doing this. DNS seems to check out and I’m assuming Kerberos is fine because all the signons and other Kerberos-only authorizations seem to work fine. I’m fairly new to servers and am not sure where else to look to check what might be wrong.
Thanks for any help.

ParticipantJust a clarification on the Guest access after some other tests this afternoon. When I turn guest access off on the AFP server, it pops up a name/PW dialog box when I click the share point icon in the dock. But, no one’s information works (returns a not valid error or something–can’t exatly recall). However, if I manually connect to the shared folder on the server (don’t think I even need to enter credentials for this), I can then use the dock icon (that didn’t work 5 seconds before) to connect normally with full read/write permissions. I’m using Kerberos-only authorization and no SSL (was having some trouble getting that to allow signons at all previously and it’s not really needed for us so didn’t feel like trouble shooting that, yet). I have a Kerberos ticket for the afp server as soon as I log in and it doesn’t appear to change even after I manually connect to the share point, so I’m assuming my DNS and authorization is working fine, but something specifically with the automounting is having issues…
