I haven't heard of that happening before.  Please open a bug, if you
haven't already.

The usual problem with files that have been modified by Mac OSX is 
that they end up with illegal timestamps and Solaris refuses to do 
anything with such files.  This is the problem that Steve Misrack 
referred to yesterday in the "Unable to open files on flash stick" 
thread.  The Solaris FAT filesystem is supposed to be being tweaked
to deal with that problem.  I don't know when a patch will be
available.

The USB implementations are very different but that shouldn't matter
because the USB implementations don't care about filesystem concepts
like filenames.  Sun Ray uses the same Solaris FAT filesystem code as
the workstation USB uses so I've no idea why SRSS fails when the
workstation succeeds.  The SB100 is a SPARC machine so maybe this is 
an x86 bug rather than a Sun Ray bug.  Can you mount this stick
successfully after plugging it into a USB port on the x86 Sun Ray
server?
