read only on Longhorn Beta

[Guest Greg O]

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.
