When Multiple Users is active, access privileges to folders named "Users" on the root level of all disks are limited.

Symptom
When Multiple Users is active folders do not appear in any folder named "Users" that is located on the root level of a disk.

Multiple Users automatically restricts access to any folder named "Users" or "users" on the root level of any disk (including file server volumes). Multiple Users treats any folder named "Users" on the root level of a disk as if it is the primary Users folder where Multiple Users stores documents and preferences. All folders (except one named the user's name) in any folder named "Users" on the root level of a disk are invisible to all Multiple Users users.

Products affected

• Multiple Users (Mac OS 9 standalone)
• Multiple Users (using any version of Macintosh Manager server)

• Move the folder named "Users" from the root level of the shared disk to another folder (Macintosh HD: Another Folder: Users).
• Rename the folder to something other than "Users" or "users".
