[CUBE] Permissions and OSX

[Keith Rowland]

You will have to log in as ROOT user first. You'll need to enable root 
access, that is done with the utility "NetInfo Manager" in the 
Applications Utilities folder. Once launched go to menu Security and 
then select Enable Root User. Set the password, don't forget it. Then 
logout and back in as user root by clicking the OTHER user and enter 
user name "root" and the password you selected.

Using Finder drill down to your real User Home folder.
Click once on whatever directory you need to change ownership of.
Perform a "Get Into" on the directory you want to change
Click down the Ownership and Permissions Tab.
Click down the Details.
Unlock the Owner if needed and change the user.
Click the Apply to Enclosed Items button.

Log out and back in as normal user.
