When a win7 users accesses a file on the server the permissions on the file revert to read only.

Hi there,


Originally my enviroment was 100% Mac, but now we have merged with another company who are all PC users.

The issue I'm having is when a Windows 7 client accesses a file on the Snow Leopard server the file becomes Read Only, and I have to manually propergate the permissions to fix it. This isn't an issue with XP users.

So far this is only happening with Excel files.


Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated.


Cheers,


J

Xserve, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
