Is there a way to allow non admin users access to Classic Apps but still restrict their access to other apps? Made the unfortunate discovery today that even setting the permissions for the System Folder (where Classic lives) to read / write for Others and the same for the folder where the Classic app lives didn't allow the non admin account access to the app. Only when I checked off the "Use only these applications" check box in the user's Capabilities window could I grant permission for that user to run the Classic app. A search of Apple knowledgebase confirms this but I can't believe you lose the ability to regulate the non admin user just to allow Classic to run.
