>From a command line, you could type: sudo dpkg-reconfigure adduser That will pop up a dialog which will ask you whether you want system-wide readable home directories. If you select no, then new home directories would not be readable by other users by default. You can do a "sudo chmod 700 ~" as the admin user which would deny access by other users to the admin directory. I guess you could run nautilus as root to browse the other users' data, but that could be a bit dangerous in itself, so I hope there's some better suggestions for that part out there. -Jonathan -- edubuntu-users mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/edubuntu-users
