Howdy,

I Migrated from a Tiger clone to a clean install of Leopard and have had some permissions problems too. However, Tiger apparently set some extra attributes and ACL's but didn't really use them while Leopard uses them. Some of them seem to be set by inheritance from above. It's a damn pain!

[rant] I've had printing problems; can crash the printing system at will. At least 20% of the time my airport won't re-connect to the wireless network when it wakes from sleep. I had a whole bunch of text files that were un-writable because of the extra attributes. Not a happy camper! [/rant]

Good Luck,
Herb Schulz
