SYMPTOMS

When you create a new folder in Windows NT Explorer under a Services for Macintosh (SFM) volume, the folder "New Folder" is created, and you are then able to type a name for this folder. However, when you try to rename the folder, the name reverts back to "New Folder" after a few seconds.
