Move user's trash can to a new location
Authored by: Anonymous on Aug 22, '03 06:06:26PM

My home directory lives on an NFS volume. In older versions of OSX (<10.2) the trash was simply ~/.Trash and everything worked fine. But now I get a message like "The item XXX will be deleted immediately. Are you sure you want to continue?"

If I try to trash something from my ~ directory (as opposed to somewhere else like ~/Desktop), then I get "Sorry, the operation could not be completed because an unexpected error occurred (Error code -8083)."

I'd love to have a working Trash again for my NFS home dir. Any suggestions?
