Shared On First Use Folders R4.5

In V4.5, yes I said it 4.5, if you are trying to put selected documents into a
shared on first use folder and you have Add folders on server disabled in the
ACL you will run into a huge security problem. That is the folder will be
created but the documents will not be placed in the folder. A work around is
to create a hidden shared folder and put the documents in that folder first and
then move them into the private folder. You may experience a small performance
hit due to the multiple folder action but you will be abled to use the folders
as needed.
