Resetting permissions on multiple user folders
Hi, i am relitively new to OS X server , I have set up a medium size network with 400 users (OS X 10.5) ,each with a network home directory. I used the finder to change some permissions on the Homedir folder and propagated them down. It made a mess of the home folder permissions and no one could log in. As we are on a live system I had to find a quick solution rather than going through each of the 400 users. So I used CHMOD to give access to all the home folders to everyone. Luckily the students have not found out they have access to each others folders yet.... . As i changed it in the finder, I am now also the owner of all the folders that i changed. Will this script work to change the (network) home folders permissions back to default? as my users are part of OD there are no users located in /Users on the server (apart from the administrator) I have no Idea where they are located, I would think in some catalog file somewhere.
Resetting permissions on multiple user folders
I would advise buying a copy of Passenger as a System Admin with this many users.

Thanks for this, I actually have a trial copy of passenger already, I used it for importing the users but i didn't know it had this function. I'll try this , |
