Permissions screwed up for network accounts - How to repair?
Hey community,
I have a serious problem after reinstalling OSX Server 10.8.
What I did:
- Backup all network shares and all /Users/* folders to an external drive for backup reasons.
- Reinstall the recovery of OS X 10.8
- Fully update
- Setting up Open Directory and stuff
- Adding network user through the Server.app
- Copy all the stuff from the backed up Users Folder back to their "new" /Users/* Folders
-> Only the contents of the supfolder (ex: copy: /Backup/NAME/Documents/data.xyz paste into: /Users/NAME/Documents/)
-> So i did not copy/paste the whole Users folder like /Backup/NAME to /Users/ and override the existing "new" NAME-folder.
- Setting permissions for the folder&subfolders /Users/NAME to let NAME have Read-&Write permission
What now happens:
- On network login the homefolder is read correctly from the server
-> So: Finder at the client shows my Homedir with Downloads and Documents and so on
-> Old Files are all readable
- Files are not writable / deletable
-> I get the message that I dont have the correct permissions...
What I tried so far:
- sudo chown NAME:staff /Users/NAME/
- Rightclick-Information checking permissions and giving them to "all subfolder" through the drop-down menu within the Information-Permission area
- "resetpassword" in the recovery mode - was senseless since only local users were shown to reset
- using the Workgroupmanager.app to set the Homefolder
I really hope, that one can give me a last hint, since I literally have no more Idea on what I could try to repair all the permissions for my network accounts.
It is absoluetly weird since "Rightclick-Information" says I have the permissions and the Homedirs are bould to the clients and the files are shown... but not editable.... HELP .. 😟
