That's *exactly* the same problem that I'm having. A popup
Message gives me a permission error but then a file with 0 bytes is
created.
I *know* my permissions are right because I have the same
setup on a machine running Netatalk 1.4b2+asun2.1.1 (the distro we
had before the coup and move to Sourceforge).
I'm just glad that I didn't test this out on a production
machine - I would have been fired if all of my users suddenly
couldn't drop and use files.
Is the solution to this to keep going backwards in releases
until we reach one that works well with the file permissions?
