I have two hard drives in my G4/400. I want the second drive to only be shown to admins, or to particular accounts. I changed the permissions in 10.2 so that the disk was owned by ME, group was ADMIN, and others NO READ/WRITE.
Everything worked perfectly, and non-admin accounts just saw a folder with an "X" on it, and were unable to open that drive on their desktop. When I upgraded to 10.2.4 however, a warning message pops up on all non-admin accounts, something like "you have inserted a volume that Mac OS X does not recognize. Click ignore to continue." Clicking ignore, everything runs fine, and the same folder with the "X" appears, and doesn't give access to non-admins.
Does anyone know how to get rid of that warning message? Or why that occurs under 10.2.4? I've tried all sorts of different setting for the permissions on that drive, and nothing works - the same message still appears. The only time it goes away is when I set the group permission to system.
Or, does anyone know of a better way to exclude certain accounts from reading/writing to certain drives? Ideally, that drive won't even show up for certain accounts.
Much thanks!
