macintosh >> Files disappearing from view

by Q2hyaXNN » Tue, 31 Oct 2006 03:06:01 GMT

One of my clients has an issue where Files (Quark so far) are not visible to
the Macs on the network. As soon as the file is renamed, it appears again.
The files reside on a Windows 2000 server running File Services for Mac.
Today the server blue- screened with the following error:

STOP: 0x000000050 (0xFC270534, 0x00000000, 0xF3907804, 0x00000000)
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGE_AREA

**** Address F3907804 base at F38F3000, DateStamp 3d7d3925 - sfmsrv.sys

This is the file server driver for Mac.

Any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks

In article < XXXX@XXXXX.COM >,




Hi Chris!

I would suggest, after a thorough backup, that you uninstall File
Services for Macintosh, reboot and then reinstall File Services for
Macintosh. This will hopefully clean up any issues that the services may
be having. Also, be sure your server's service packs and security
patches are up-to-date as well.

I also encourage that you look into forgoing SFM for either ExtremeZ-IP
from http://www.grouplogic.com or Dave/ADMitMac from
http://www.thursby.com . SFM's version of AFP is 2.2, which is very
outdated compared to Mac OS X's current 3.2. With either of these
solutions you'll get longer file name support and Active Directory
integration as well as great support from their developers.

Hope this helps! bill

1. Temporary HTML viewer files disappearing when viewing HTML attachments in PC-Pine 

Hi,
I know this is a known problem, but I was wondering if there is any
workaround to this, as the last message I read about this was from
2001.
The files disappear before the viewer (e.g. Mozilla) is launched.
Really annoying.

Thanks!

3. File Name Disappeared from Web Folder View 

A little nervous twitch and click of the mouse - and the file NAME column 
disappeared from Web Folder view.  I have looked everywhere, online, forums, 
microsoft, etc. and find nothing to help with this problem (FrontPage 2003).  
I uninstalled/reinstalled and problem is still there.  I have the same 
program installed on my desktop - and the file name column is there.  Without 
the NAME column - you can't change titles in this view.

In Office file manager view, you can click on the column row and pick and 
choose what columns you want to view.  This option isn't available in FP2003. 
 I'm right in the middle of finishing a course at the local college, the 
instructor doesn't know what happened either.  Does anyone have any ideas at 
all??  If so, would sure appreciate any help or direction.  Thanks in advance.

exist in all other applications just not word. Any ideas 
on how to fix the problem?

7. Site root folder disappears from file view 

Very strange behavior -- in the file list view with local site selected, the 
site root folder disappears from the file list after a few seconds.  Clicking 
the refresh button brings it back for a moment, then it disappears again.  Any 
idea what is going on?  Has anyone else experienced this before?  

 Using Dreamweaver CS3 version 9.0 build 3481 on Windows XP sp2.  Local and 
remote sites are both accessed through mounted network share drives on our 
network.

 Thanks for any insight,
