SYMPTOMS
When you view Services For Macintosh (SFM) Volume and Directory
Permissions, the primary group account is listed as <Account Unknown>.
Macintosh clients may report being unable to connect to Windows NT volumes,
or unable to access some directories within the volume.
CAUSE
The Windows NT Server computer is set up as a stand-alone server, and has
been moved from a domain to a workgroup. By default, when a SFM volume is
created, the primary group is set to the domain users group. When the
server is moved to a workgroup, the domain accounts are no longer
available, and the primary group will not choose another group without
administrator intervention.
RESOLUTION
An administrator will have to modify the Volume and Directory permissions
for the Macintosh volume to set the primary group to an existing group.
