<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Hiya,</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I've been writing a droplet AppleScript
to change the permissions on a dropped folder (and it's contents - files
and folders) to full read/write and I've just been playing with the terminal
and the Info window under 10.4.5 and have found that the Finder isn't keeping
up with the changes I'm making in terminal.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I create a new folder called "Test"
and set the following privileges via Get Info window:</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Owner (brett): read/write</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Group (brett): no access</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Others : read/write</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">If I check in the terminal (ls -l) I
see the privileges as they should be:</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">drwx---rwx 4 brett brett
136 Mar 8 10:52 Test</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">If I then change it via terminal (chmod
-R g=rwx Test) so that the group has read/write access:</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">drwxrwxrwx 4 brett brett
136 Mar 8 10:52 Test</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">When I Get Info on the folder "Test"
it still shows:</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Group (brett): no access</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I have to log out then back in to see
the changes. Is anyone else having this issue under 10.4.5? Surely Apple
would have cleared up this "delayed Finder update" issue by now!</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">In doing similar tests yesterday under
10.3.9 I remember seeing the Privileges in the Get Info window changing
without having to even close it and Get Info again.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Cheers,</font>
