- G'day,
- I had problems with the top level CAP folder
- losing icon positions. And also, when you do a "New Folder",
- it says not enough permission, but does it anyway! (after a delay)
-
- I thought I solved it by creating .finderinfo and .resource
- dirs in .., and making everything rw for everyone, rwx for everyone
- for dirs. i.e. I now have
- /usr0/.finderinfo
- /usr0/.resource
- /usr0/cap-test
- /usr0/cap-test/.finderinfo
- /usr0/cap-test/.resource
- /usr0/cap-test/.ADeskTop
- /usr0/cap-test/.IDeskTop
- owned by root, all with completely permissive permissions.
-
- I still get the same problems, except when I run debugging.
- (I guess because when you're debugging aufs, it still runs as
- root). I finally `solved' it by chown'ing everything to me,
- and then mount the CAP vol on the Mac.
-
- This is not really a solution!
-
- I would be grateful for any help!
- Email me to me and I will summarise.
- (I read the FAQ and some source code, it didn't help)
-
- Thanks in advance,
- -Matt
