Hi group. I'm moving to MacFUSE 1.0.0 with my ntfs-3g package ( http://macntfs-3g.blogspot.com ), but I'm having issues. When mounting a file system with ntfs-3g in MacFUSE 1.0.0, the file system pops up on the desktop and all seems well... until you try to copy anything from it. At that point the cursor changes to a greyed out "forbidden" sign when trying to drag a file from the NTFS volume to anywhere else. The Finder just won't let me copy anything. I'm not sufficiently educated about how the Finder handles these things... but when I go to the command line and do the same thing, it works.
The funny thing is that you can: - Copy files _to_ the NTFS volume - Rename files in the NTFS volume ...in Finder without any problems. But you can't: - Copy/move files from the NTFS volume - Copy/move files within the NTFS volume As far as I can see, the permissions are fine (rwxrwxrwx with user and group set to sane values). It's also not (as far as I can see) an internationalization issue, as the names of the files I'm trying to copy are plain english ascii filenames. Does anybody know what causes this problem? I have seen something similar once or twice with MacFUSE 0.4.0 but it went away after a Finder restart. This time, it won't go away, ever. I have tried most of the available mount options (default_permissions, auto_xattr, defer_permissions, allow_other, allow_root) but none makes any difference. I don't see that it would be an ntfs-3g issue, since the exact same version of ntfs-3g works well in 0.4.0 but not in 1.0.0. When I list the file permissions and ownership with file systems mounted with the two versions of MacFUSE, they don't differ at all. You will surely be able to reproduce the problem by downloading, building and trying to mount anything with the latest version, 1.1030 (or the previous, 1.1004... I haven't tested with older versions than that) of ntfs-3g on OS X. I also have tested both the Tiger and Leopard versions of 1.0.0 and they behave exactly the same. (Unrelated, the new "local" option causes disk utility to behave strangely in Tiger, but not Leopard, but that's another issue) - Erik Larsson --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "macfuse-devel" group.
