Hello,

On the Longhorn Beta when I share a folder it seems to revert to
read only. I think it still allows files to be changed in it from
across the network, but when I look at the folder on the local server
it has read only ticked. I untick it and hit apply, it is then
unticked. If I close the properties window of the folder and
immediately reopen it the read only box is ticked again. I'm getting
ticked off by this, pardon the pun.
For example if I back up into this folder from another server the
size of the file does not grow when I look in this folder in Windows
Explorer. Then if I untick read only the size of the backup file
suddenly jumps to the right size, then freezes as read only apparently
resets itself.
It may be a feature of User Access Control, but I don't want to have
to turn that off.
