You are cruisin' for a bruisin'...this is poor practice. really. You need another user on the system, if only to be able to diagnose things when they go wrong in your primary account.
Which, if you persist in dinking around in your OS X file system from OS 9, is only a matter of time.
In earlier versions of security, you could get into the secure places in X from
9. Not anymore. Is there a way I can give permission in Panther to access
those files from 9? Or something?
I haven't the slightest idea how you've done this. In OS 9 you should be able to get to everything on the OS X disk, presuming the OS 9 drivers are installed. If your home folder is using FileVault, good luck and keep good backups. You're completely hosed if anything happens to that one encrypted file.
