iNik Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Simple answer: "Get Info" on the file/folder and you can restrict access there. In OS X Server, there's some other options, but that's where you'll find the basics. You can also use BSD-style commands to restrict access at the command line.

Steve T. Posted February 4, 2005 Share Posted February 4, 2005 Hi, h! Mac OS X is like a GUI running over Unix. MacOS9, MacOSXServer, and Unix allow the configuration of USER/GROUP/OTHER permissions but MacOSX standard seems to have left out the GROUP part (or at least it's not readily accessible). I've defined groups using NetInfo Utility, but I don't recommend it for most people. If you're into UNIX, you can manually change permissions from the command line using CHMOD and CHOWN. --ST Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
