I have a few questions of the ignorant type.. plaese excuse if I offend :)

System p133
Software netatalk1.42b, redhat 4.2
Clients powermacs 7200/7300/8500's MacOS 8

Ok.. firstly can you stop the user from using a AppleVolumes file from their
home dir?? I don't want to share everything... so I don't want them to be
able to use such a file.

I tried creating one for them (empty) and chown.chmodding it but I found that
even though root owned the file.. You could rename it from the Mac... - BAD

I wonder if you can do this to other files say /etc/passwd??

Also.. I was curious what the .appledouble folders are ?? do they hold the
resource forks??
