10.4: Use Access Control Lists for fine-grained control
I tried this with an iTunes library and ran into problems.
10.4: Use Access Control Lists for fine-grained control
The ACL permissions override the unix ones -- so once you've set ACLs on the files/directories, feel free to chmod o+rwx them -- then iTunes will see that the files are "world readable" if it looks only at the unix bits, but anyone who actually tried to read the file (instead of just stat-ing it) will not be able to if they're not in the ACL.

This sounds strange to me - iTunes (or any other app for that matter) shouldn't look at unix permissions as such, it should ask the kernel "do I have access to this file?" and the kernel will consult the ACLs (if there are any) and then the unixperms and simply reply "yes" or "no"

Have you enabled ACLs on your volume, as noted in the hints below?
I get the same error.
I can second this problem. I've been experimenting with ACL's and get the read-only error accessing iTunes from a different user.
However, works in Iphoto.
I just tried using ACL's with iPhoto. It (seems to) work like a charm; I'm able to access, maniputlate, and add photos as both users -- and the other sees the same result. |
