TOPIC

    This article describes an issue where users are unable to open networking control panels after logging in using Multiple Users.

DISCUSSION

    Symptom
    Users logged in using Multiple Users are not able to open the Multiple Users, AppleTalk, TCP/IP, Remote Access, or File Sharing control panels.

    Solution
    This is normal behavior. Network settings are specific to each computer-not to each user. Only the owner can make changes in these control panels.

    Note: Normal users that are allowed to manage user accounts can open the Multiple Users control panel (using Mac OS 9.x).

    If Normal, Panels or Limited users must change network settings, consider using Location Manager as described in Article 60657: " Mac OS 9: Location Manager and Multiple Users ."
