Not quite.

We have the same problem on our Auspicies and NetApp: if you change the permissions on the UNIX side, it clobbers the NT permissions. Same deal the other way around. The permissions work Ok if one of them is set up for some sort of "global user."

Thankfully, I am not working on that project at all, but I do know that our NetApp guy has been in a couple of times working on it. (His solutions, so far, haven't even come close to our requirements.)

Before you flame/etc... I run the Suns and the UNIX servers in the office and do not do anything with the NT systems right now. I do not know any more details of the problem that we are having. Thank you. :)
