Re: SF Failure on NTFS

FINALLY!
This problem has plagued my SF installation for YEARS!
When I reported this I was told that the problem was due to
the files not having 'standard' attributes.

I did not know about the I attribute so I never got it working.

My home PC which is set up exactly the same (No indexing allowed)
does not have the problem.

Best Regards,
Morten A. Steien
