Watch folders are being created where the person who created the
project is the only one with read and write privildges and the everyone
else only has read priviledges.
Even though we all choose to "Share it" (contact, notes, tasks) when
accepting an invitation, our additions to the project don't show up on
any computer but on our own computers, while the person who created the
project can make additions and we see those because they have
permission to write to the watch folder.
I went into workgroup manager on our Tiger 10.4 server and found that
this project as well as ones created very recently (like in the last
week or so) show that no one except the project creator have read write
privildges for the Watch Folder, the Files folder and the Archive File.
In Workgroup Manager on the server, I can see the contents of the
Archive file and all those folders (Calendar, Contacts, Notes, etc) are
the same, the creator is the only one with writing priviledges. While
I could go and change every new watch folder to the correct
priviledges, this would basically suck.
Can anyone think of anything that would cause the priviledges to the
watch folder to be set so restructive? I swear, this was not the case
two weeks ago. Plus, there haven't been any changes made, small or
otherwise that could cause this to start happening. We create new
projects in the center about 1 to 2 times per week.
Any other oddity too is the watch folder for one project showed as Drop
Box folders (folder icon with the arrow pointing down) - showing we
could only add but not read - Weird?
Main Project creator - MacBook Pro running 10.4.7
Me - PowerBook G4 running 10.4.7
Another user - iMac Intel - 10.4.7
All of us have Office 2004 11.2.5

PS, One thing I haven't tried was creating a project myself to see the
rights to the Watch folder are restricted for others - may narrow done
our usual project creator to be the problem. Will add the findings to
this discussion.
