May 2011 Scheduled Maintenance for OES2 SP3
May 2011 Scheduled Maintenance for OES2 SP3
Situation
After updating to the May 2011 Maintenance Release they have a few users that run into this problem. When they copy a file to the root of their home directory then the
user will have lost their trustee assignment to their home directory.
Version of NCP RPMs do match what was released in the May 2011 Scheduled Maintenance for OES2 SP3
novell-ncpenc-5.1.5-0.41
novell-ncpserv-2.0.3-0.21
novell-ncpserv-nrm-2.0.3-0.15
novell-ncpserv-tools-2.0.3-0.21
The problem is that "ncpcon version" is showing a 2011-4-28 date and not the 2011-05-10 date that it should for the May 2011 Scheduled Maintenance for OES2 SP3.

Resolution
Force the NCP rpms to be reinstalled.
rpm -Uvh --force
Then either reboot the server or restart ndsd and ncp2nss.
rcndsd restart
/etc/init.d/ncp2nss restart
