error code -50

I have a problem directory. I can't add acls to it and when I try to create a folder within it I get the following: An unexpected error occured (error code -50). I've taken the volume offline and run cvfsck and come up clean. Everything has been restarted. I can create a directory using command line but any time I use the finder I get that error. If I try to create a folder via xsan admin it just hangs up.

No the persmissions were fine (except for the fact that I could no longer change them or add acls via the xsan admin, though I was able to change the posix permissions in the command line). It was using Open Directory. In fact everyone was set to read/write. I finally had to move all of the subfolders to a new folder and delete the old folder.
