I'm running OS X Server on a G4, and what I'm trying to do is to set it up so each user on the server and log in through AFP, and the only volume listed is their home folder. However my user is an admin and I still need access to the whole drive. The problem is, such a setup seems impossible with the way the permissions work. To give only me access to the whole hard drive, I'd have to set it up as a share point but change its permissions so 'everyone' has NO access to the drive. Even the Workgroup Manager app tell you you shouldn't be doing this. Also, I don't want people to be able to get even read access to the Users folder, cause then they can see all the other user names of users on the computer. But if I make the Users folder no longer a share point, when I make a new user, I can't make them a home folder in the Users folder, apparently you can only make home folders in share points. So it seems impossible to do what I want to do, but I don't know it seems very strange that you wouldn't be able to make it so each user can ONLY see their own stuff. So I'm thinking I must be missing something here.
