  • "Understanding default permissions in OS X: Creating new files and folders gives them a default permissions set that can allow access to them from other account, which may be concerning at first glance." MacFixIt 12:43 PM
  • "I've tried to lock ARD's preference file using the Finder. The file still gets deleted and replaced. I also tried locking the file in the Finder, immediately using Terminal to change the ownership/group to root/wheel and giving myself (world) only read permission: the file still got deleted and replaced with a corrupt version. Why on earth would any Apple-written application or process delete a locked file which I don't have write permission to? Because the permissions on the file aren't what control whether or not it can be deleted. The permissions on the containing directory are what control that." MacInTouch 4:05 PM
