I have the perfect admin account and I wanted to pass its preferences along to any other user I create on the machine, so I copied /Users/admin/Library/Preferences to /System/Library/User Template/English.lproj/Library/Preferences, but when I create a user, the preferences don't take. I can see all the preference files I copied in /User/newuser/Library/Preferences (so it's taking the preferences from the System/Library... folder), but nothing's sticking. Is there anything I'm missing?
