I've recently set my machine up as a pseudo file server for a selected set of
files using Public Folder 1.0. On the surface, PF works wonders. It is very
fast and easy to use!

However...

I am finding that my file system is corrupted after someone copies files from
my machine. A reboot has always corrected the problems (ie nothing fatal yet).
Three examples:
1. MPW will stop running a script in the background. I cannot close any
   temporary files opened by the script. I can quit and restart, however.
2. MPW and the linker. I use the -mf option, which will chew up all available
   memory on the machine. Linker also opens as many files as it can. Usually a
   reboot is necessary after this case.
3. Quitting MacTerminal corrupted my MacTerminal document. MacTerminal reported
   error -38 twice (fnOpnErr).

All this runs on a 5Mb MacII with colour. Yes, I run MultiFinder.

Anyone have any suggestions?
