I once had group related problems with netatalk. When the Mac wanted
to create a file on the server, the file should have had no group, and
so the Mac sent 0 as Group ID, which is (according to inside
AppleTalk) the code for "no group".
But the netatalk server insisted of chwon()ing the file to gid 0,
which resulted in EPERM. The "fix" was to add group 0 for every
netatalk user. Fortunately, there were only two users and everyone of
them had the root password. So security was not a problem. :-)
This was prior to the 1.4 version, so perhaps (who knows) these
problems are already fixed.
73, Mario
