I'm beating my head against a whole series of access issues on one member of a 
5 cpu retail store. This is the main user on the office paperwork center for 
their point of sale system, POSiM. Everything crashes on this imac whenever 
it's connected to the server. It runs ok when disconnected from their network, 
but some apps will not launch, and every change to files or folders must be 
authenticated. 

What I think has happened is that during serial upgrades, between Carbon Copy 
Cloner and Migration Assistant, the drive read/write permissions have been 
screwed. Somehow the Groups and Users membership relationships have become 
intertwined. I can't assign any file or folder to system as owner, via get 
info, or the Directory Utility. 

Here's one view from Directory Utility, for the Administrators Group. 
Yes, there are multiple admin accounts; all systems in this store are 
configured with all accounts needed in the store, so that any mac can be used 
in any capacity. It's a redundancy that allows me to bring one home to fix it 
without crippling the store.

Any suggestions? I've been trying various terminal commands, have done 
everything I could find to try short of Archive and Install, which is next on 
my list if I can't think of anything else. I've downloaded BatCHMOD and 
Permissions Repair, both cannot run on that system.
