Confirmation of a multi-user application limits bug
With Multi-User enabled, and my childrens account "limited", including not allowing the use of Safari, I thought I was all set. However, everytime my daughter was on the computer, she was able to access the Internet. I tested the limitation settings, everything was operating as it should. Later, when my daughter was on the internet again, I asked her how she was able to get on. She said, "It was easy Dad, under the blue Apple I went to "Recent Items", and selected Safari. If that didn't work, I would go to "Mac OSX Software" and get on. I tried not to look surprised ... Leave it to a thirteen year old to find a way around Apples "security".
