kmosx5: "Apply to enclosed items" causes permissions issues on home folder
The solution is this (courtesy of petrock)
1) boot from your Leopard install CD (insert it, shut down, start while holding "C")
2) Choose your language.
3) When the menubar appears, select Utilities->Reset Password.
4) In the window that appears, select your boot volume from the list at the top.
5) In the popup button below the volume list, select your user from the list.
6) Click the "Reset" button at the bottom of the window. This will reset the privs (and ACLs) back to their default settings.
7) Repeat Steps 5 & 6 for every user on your machine who has this problem (except "System Administrator (Root)").
Input on this tip would be appreciated.
