User Privileges


  • Subject: User Privileges

Suppose you have a Finder item (file, folder) that was created by user "A".
User "A" is now the owner of the item.
Suppose, further, that user "A" adds user "B" to the item and sets privileges for that user.

Here's the problem ...
User "B" is logged in and, via an AppleScript, wants to get the privileges assigned to him by user "A".
As far as I can determine, this is impossible.

The script can ask for the 'owner' of the item --> "A",
and can ask for the owners privileges,
but I can find no command in AppleScript which can
1. ask if "B" is an assigned user of the item; and
2. ask for the privileges of user "B".

Does anyone know how to do this?
