We have noticed a strange issue some files mostly xls files, are losing their file permissions, to the extent we [the domain admins] can not re-add them, the only way to fix it is to restore from a backup, and we cant overwrite since we dont even have permission to fix the problem.
At first we thought it was either our 2K fileserver attached to our SAN, however the problem has spread to another fileserver on another site.
We are also unable to change the Owner on the file, anything to do with the permissions side of things we can not do
We are using the latest McAfee, and reasonably upto day on the MS patch side of things. We have found no trace of a virus.
This problem happens on 2K, XP workstations, and 2K terminal servers, it is totally random It also happens on Office 97,2000,XP
I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions
Thanks
