user access privileges

PowerPC

Registered
Hello!

How can I restrict the users defined on my machine to browse ONLY their users' folders, and not others', when logging on my machine from their computers ? Supposed that user A loggs my machine (on which he has an account) from his computer, at this time he's able to see users' B, C, D, E (from my machine) folders with all their content.

Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you very much.

MacOSX Drive (or the like) Users:

click on your name and press command and I then on the drop down menu click priveliges and click the first one read and write and the next none.


Voila! A completely locked home folder. For your eyes only!

This should not be. He should see the their Home directories and the name of the directories inside, but there should be a little red circle with a white minus sign in it on the folders, except for Sites and Public which are open to the public, signifying that they are locked and the files inside are unaccessible. If they are not like this, then there is something wrong with the permissions for these directories and their Users.

Good Luck.
