Subject: Re: No file permissions on new .AppleDouble files

I found this in my messages log:
afpd[3352]: setdirowner: chown -1/0 .AppleDouble/.Parent: Operation not
permitted
Which would appear to be related, but since I don't know what it means I
couldn't say for sure.
Again, any help would be greatly appreciated.
