users

I want to store some files on a Macintosh (OS 10.2). They should be in the Public folder, but only accessible (= only readable) by certain people. Thus I would like to create a new group that has accession rights to these files. Strangely, the group command doesn't exist on MacOS X (chgrp does exist though). I downloaded the User Manager application. But the version for OS 10.2 was not really easy to use. Thus I used the NetInfo Manager.

Old Windows (i.e. fat partitions) are no problem for Linux. advanced installers like Yast automatically recognize them and make them available under Linux. However, sometimes the accession privileges are not as you need them. In order to make a fat partition (un)mountable to all users and make every file/directory +rwx for everybody, the fstab needs to look like this: /dev/hda2 /media/windows/E vfat defaults,users,uid=500,gid=100,umask=000 0 0 Additionally Linux owner 500 and group 100 mapped as an for all files.
