Generic ACL entry not getting Role on OSX?

The ACL for a database I support contains a generic entry for anyone inside the org to have Author access with a certain Role assigned. This works fine on Windows, but on Macs it is not picking up the Role. Am I missing something? There are ways in the design I can work around where this causes me headaches, but I'd like to understand why I'm seeing this behavior. Thanks!

Details?

Do you mean that a person using a Mac opens a database that resides on the server and that person sees a different ACL than a user running Windows? I know of no way that can happen since the ACL lives with the db, not the client.

If something else is happening (like each user is getting some local or server based copy of a db or template and the ACL is different based on the user's OS) can you provide details of how the db is created for the user?

Groups and Roles is different
In the ACL I've got */IBM set for Author access and it's assigned a particular role. When I get the user to check the Groups and Roles, it shows Author access and */IBM as the group, but the role only appears at the bottom of the list on Windows, not on OSX.
