AppleScript for password on external HD?
Hi,
I have an external HD attached via USB to a Mac running 10.5.8. That HD contains folders, subfolders and individual items.
I need to have Finder demand a password from everyone, including myself, when adding, removing or modifying folders, subfolders and individual items from that HD.
No password should be demanded for reading or copying items from that HD.
Whenever I copy an item from the external HD and put it on my desktop, it should automatically assume all the standard permissions - I should be able to read and write on it without passwords.
In a nutshell, the script should do this
1. Add/Delete/Modify an item/folder on the external HD: pasword
2. Read/Copy from the external HD: no password.
The above should apply to everyone, including the owner of the HD.
Can anyone help???????
