A potential multiple users login bug
Authored by: osxpounder on Aug 22, '03 04:30:45PM
Summary: The error only happens to users logging in, when, in user's capabilities, "Open All System Preferences" is checked without checking "Change Password."

[robg adds: I don't have any non-admin users, so I can't confrim this one -- can anyone else comment on a warning dialog at startup for non-admin users on multi-drive machines?]
You won't remember this, robg, but I dropped by the OSXChat a few months ago asking folks there for help with this very problem--at the time, we were all scratching our heads and no one else there had seen it yet.

It occurs on two Macs I've set up, but neither allows users to Open All System Preferences nor Change Password ....

I just decided to let the users click "Ignore ...", since that's what they'd do if they couldn't get in contact with me anyway. No harm seems to have come from this. I'm glad to know someone else has seen it, and perhaps I'll apply a fix described here when I re-image those machines--I haven't decided yet.
