Example, I have a party at my house, and I want my guests to be able to change music and do stuff like check their Facebook. So I login with the guest account, since I don't want my guests to use my account. But in this scenario, I would like the guest account to have read-only access to /media/Music/ so that music can be played from the guest account. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to lightdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/882862 Title: Guest account can read/write in /media/ Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Bug description: The guest account can everything under /media/. Is the guest account really supposed to be able to access and read all the files on the host computer? If yes, then is the guest account really really supposed to be able to write to /media/ ? Shouldn't the guest be limited to his temporary home in /tmp/ ?
