Environment

Novell Filr 2.0

Situation

A FAMT crash was observed where environment has DFS junctions and the Net Folder Server is being manually synchronized.

Resolution

A fix for this issue is available in the Filr 2.0 Hot Patch 2, available via the Novell Patch Finder.

Cause

During the synchronization, FAMT will remove the trustee cache for the net folder and recreate it. During the process only the DFS source volume's trustee cache is present and target volumes trustee cache was not present (yet to be built). In this situation when a trustee related request is received for the DFS target, FAMT crashes in TrusteeOperations::PopulateTrusteeList.
