account is non-administrative (but has 'sudo' rights -- edit /etc/
sudoers to add 'em) and I rarely log into the admin account
directly; only to do major administrative work on the system.
Moving the account is easy; copy/move the account to the right spot
on /Volumes/Data, then use the advanced functionality in the
accounts pane to change the path. Delete the one in /Users/ to
prevent confusion, done.
I'm trying to create a similar setup., but with a clean user folder. I
have just repartitioned my drive, and created partitions.
-On one partition I installed Leopard (10.5.8), and created an admin
user.
-WIth that account I created a new non-admin user.
-I copied over the user folder to the data partition.
-I changed the path for that user in the advanced options of the
accounts pane.
-I gave the new user sudo rights by editing sudoers (using sudo
visudo). (I did not find /etc/sudoers/, apparently it is in /private/
etc/sudoers.)
-I restarted and logged into the new user account. So far so good, the
login appears to be successful and the account is on the correct
partition. But:
-I can hardly do anything within that account. I do not even have
enough privileges to open some of my own folders.
So, what's up with that? Any ideas about what may have gone wrong,
what I may have missed, how to fix the account?
Kind Regards,
