Hi,
the create_file request checks for GENERIC_READ or GENERIC_WRITE, but not for GENERIC_ALL.
http://groups.google.de/group/microsoft.public.vc.language/browse_thread/thr...
Documented on MSDN via http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/fileio/fs/c... --> http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/fileio/fs/f... --> http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/secauthz/se...
This might be an issue since some programs might want to do a CreateFile call with GENERIC_ALL. Only few programs do, however, and there is a reason for it: http://groups.google.de/group/microsoft.public.vc.language/browse_thread/thr... indicates that GENERIC_ALL is problematic, so maybe it's not too bad that wineserver doesn't support it properly.
JFYI,
Andreas

The flags should be mapped from generic to specific access rights. The wineserver should then check for a subset of these attributes. This would also allow applications to use FILE_READ_DATA and FILE_WRITE_DATA and still work.
