Q: what are the default permissions on a data disk ? an on folders in such a disk ?
I have sometimes problems with applications complaining about access rights and I am not sure what to set as standard for a data disk and on folders and files in that disk.
Current settings for the disk:
System: read and write (owner)
admin: read and write
everyone: read only
Current settings for the file in question:
me: read and write (owner)
staff: read and write
everyone: no rights
Repair of access rights via Harddiskutility has no influence and brought up no messages concerning this disk and file
Searching the database there are a lot of entries showing the process of setting access rights, but there are no hints what is recommended
