Same here - /Users/stereo/Desktop is chmod 700 on OSX 10.0.4, both Server and "Standalone". The template for new user directories is stored at: /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/Admin.framework/Resources/English.lproj/ user.gnutar. You might want to check if the template's permissions are set correctly. Hope this helps :) Guillaume On Tuesday, June 26, 2001, at 09:25 PM, Valdis.Kletnieksat_private wrote: > On Tue, 26 Jun 2001 02:24:55 +0200, kangoo <kangoo@saga-city.com> said: >> Permissions of /Users/yourname/Desktop which show your desktop is >> xrwxrwxrwx, allowing every user to read/write on your own Desktop >> folder. >> >> Fix: chmod 755 or chmod 750 /Users/yourname/Desktop >> >> Apple have been warned long ago and as of 10.0.4 it is stil not fixed. > > Odd.. mine is set to mode 700.
