Files Copied to share vanish after copy.

[s.havoc]

I have a frustrating problem which I cant seem to figure out.
My xServe is running 10.2 server (10.2.8 now) and my client machines are all running 10.2 as well. I have netinfo setup to host all the user accounts and share points (workgroup manager). Now everything was working along just fine and some shares are still working just fine BUT there are times when I wil copy a file from my local machine or from my network desktop to one of the NFS shares and file will copy properly then promptly disapear upon completion. The only way to copy a file sometimes is to copy a directory with the file in it, THEN it will copy.

So, the basic problem is this, I drag and drop a file onto an nfs share the file copies, then blip, disapears and is not found where I copied it to (from the server or the client), a directory will copy however. Any ideas ?

This is rather confusing me, I have checked permissions, tested the drives and run various tools to check the filesystem, everything comes back roses.
