- I am trying to setup a disk that would have a number of drop folders for
- users in a group. A user could drop a file into anyones drop folder, but
- can only read items in his own folder. (Similiar to drop folders on Appleshare
- servers).
-
- To date, I have things setup so that it looks and acts properly when dropping
- a file into a folder. The problem is that when I switch users to the one
- owning the folder, the files all have the CAP default Unix icon. When one
- trys to drag the files to the trash, you get an error that an idea can not
- be moved into itself.
-
- Any help would greatly be appreciated.
