I've got a rather large fileserver used in a clinical setting. I have nearly 1TB of data (mostly in images). The images are supposed to be shared across the network and able to be viewed at review stations. I have everyone allowed on the server via a remote station r/w access to all of the images. I've been getting complaints over disk i/o read errors on the review stations for certain patients. I logged on directly on the server and was able to pull up the images in question with no problem. I don't think my permissions propagated appropriately.

Does anyone know what I can do to ensure that these things are written with the correct permissions. I already unshared the drive and tried to reshare it with r/w but no deal.

try starting out by giving everybody full control of the share. once everybody is able to r/w to the images, then per individual access, apply whatever restriction.

that's the big problem... EVERYONE has r/w control over it... There is no reason that we should be having permission problems... The only thing I can think of is during the intitial propagation of EVERYONE to r/w/d it didn't get all 1TB of the data...

Have you checked the actual folders the data is stored in to see if they have special permission? I assume you're logging which patients they are having trouble with so that you can trace where these images are.

I am. I have a list. The ones the satellite stations can't see the server can.
