I had some reasonably similar experiences with the change to Leopard. First of all, with respect to security, things are tightening up all over the place and this is reflected in permissions. Secondly, I started using 'path to "utmp"' for temporary items and that was a help in a few places.

I suspect that permissions are involved. Many folders that should belong to me show only an owner named "(unknown)" with "read only" access. I can add myself as a read-write owner, which seems to fix most problems. I have been searching for tech docs about the "(unknown)" owner, but no luck.


And no email address at Apple where I can ask, so I'm on the phone with Apple at this very moment. They can't answer this question. I'm currently on hold with an Apple USB modem question.

and holding ... and holding ... and finally ...

(This is OT, but it seems that the ability to dial a phone with a modem, except for connecting to an ISP, has been removed from Leopard. Dumb idea! How do these things happen! Perhaps someone at Apple really, really enjoys pushing buttons on a phone. Finger exercise. And convinced someone else that finger exercise is good and wonderful and should be a new feature of Leopard. When I've developed a really strong middle finger ...)
