Office 2003 + 2007 ACL Corruption
Posted: Apr 6, 2009 4:11 AM
 

back to the question
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8073847

"Whenever a windows user re-saves their Word or Excel document from Office 2003 or 2008 on our 10.5.4 server(not saving locally but directly on the server), it corrupts the ACL Permissions. It makes 4 copies of the current ACL Users/Groups and adds Everyone and Users Groups as an Allow."


is this true do we wait until the 10.6 is released !!
we are working on the osx server 10.5.5 and still have this same problem
is this problem solved in 10.5.6 ?

I tried to solve this problem with a script that takes away all the wrong acl entries f the stuffix .xls .doc .ppt .pdf… but there I've some troubles

Solved

There is a fix, as I was dealing with this problem.

http://www.stanford.edu/group/macosxsig/blog/2009/04/shared_workbook_and_acls.html

on the server edit /etc/smb.conf
and add at the very end of it after the END comment.

global
nt acl support = no

I did that and the ACL duplication went away.

even the POSIX seams to work like expect ! this wasn't the case with out the entry in the smb.conf

I stopped the smb server
opened the /etc/smb.conf with TextWrangler

butted at the very end of the file this lines…

global
nt acl support = no

so it loks like this now ;

..
..

; Site-specific parameters can be added below this comment.
; END required configuration.

global
nt acl support = no
