You need to use Access Control Lists (ACLs) to do what you want. Not
difficult, but does require Tiger and the use of Terminal. ACLs
override standard file permissions, and give you the ability to
assign access permissions by user.

Has anyone actually seen iiNet ADLS2+ go faster than 4Mb/sec? It
peaks at this speed for me, and I've seen it do the same on others,
but never faster. The actual speed is usually slower for me than 4Mb/
sec, and of late it appears there are more disruptions.

Under Preferences, Sound, Sound Effects, there is a checkbox for
'Play user interface sound effects'. Word has noises for a few
events, including Save. Applies to all documents (and also not just
Word).

I've been a big fan of iiNet ... up until recently. They have grown
