    Hey all, I am in the process of upgrading a few client machines to Tiger ( 10.4.5 ), and I am having a big problem. Basically, after a little while ( its not a consistent amount of time), I notice that my file server has a above average load, and I check the appleFileServer logs and I notice that there is a storm of “OpenFork .DS_Store” coming from a certain machine. Basically every second, there are 10-15 of these calls. So far this has happened on four different machines, but only once with two at the same time.

    The only thing that can be done, is to unmount the user from that file server. This has also happened on two different servers so far, but one of those it has only happened once. Both servers are 10.3.9. Has anybody seen this issue? And what can be done about it? The tiger machines were all imaged from one image, so could it be a problem on the client machine’s image? or could it be a problem between Panther server and Tiger clients?

    Thanks
    Brent
