When I open the Network tab in Finder I find two aliases, 1 called Library and one called Servers. When I click on Library I am informed that the original item cannot be found. Anyone else get this too.

Also, I cannot delete this alias, if i try I get a you do not have sufficient privileges error.

Anyone else experience this? Is this a known tiger bug?

please help..

Yes, it's the proper behavior unless you're on an OS X Server network. Don't worry about.
