Saving files on local server, permissions issues? Delete issues? Weird behaviour?
Setup:
Our office has a server. A physical one, on our local network.
We have users on machines on our local network.

Dropbox StaffHey tomlivings, thanks for reaching out to our Community.
Generally, hosting Dropbox on a server is not something we support, but let's see what we can find out about this.
Can you replicate the issue on a different computer with an operating system listed as supported here?
Is Dropbox running as a service on your server or was it installed as a regular application?
Any additional info you can give us about your setup, would also be appreciated.
Thanks.
hmmm, not sure what additional info I can give.
The workstations on the network are all W11 and the server is W10. All pro.
All workstations log onto the server using the same logon and password. Can that cause a problem? I dont really want to put a bunch of user profiles on the server.
All software and OS's are licensed and legit. All updates are auto to be current.
All machines have 2 ip addresses on separate NICs. One for internet (auto-ip to hook into the 1gig broader office network on 10.0.0.xxx), the other is our local network on fixed ip's (10.0.1.xxx) for our local 10gig network for the studio.
Our internet is not very reliable, has many 'mini-outages'. Not sure if that can cause issues?
Was a great system up to two months ago...

Thanks for the update here, Tom.
Can you also confirm that there aren't multiple profiles accessing and/or editing the same files at the same time while logged into the app?
Confirmed, we see this problem when one user is saving one file and no-one else is.
