renaming files on Mac server from PC

by sceva . Updated 21 years, 3 months ago

I am running a Power Mac g3 with OS 8.6 as a file server. I have a couple of windows 2000 and xp computers that access files on that server. It is using Appleshare IP 6.2. The problem is that a windows user cannot rename folders. They can create new folders, but cannot rename them. It is also a problem with some applications that automatically create folders.
I did a little research and saw something about a smb problem, but didn’t find a fix, other than to upgrade to Appleshare 6.3 and OS 9.something.
Does anyone have any fixes that would be simpler?
Thanks.
