What does the current os8 AppleShare client do with a normal server that is
both locked and hasn't been used with os8 before? I assume it would have
the same, incorrect, finder info as netatalk. If the volume is not mounted
for writing you shouldn't be able to change the finder info there either -
or is this a security hole in old apple servers?
