My wife and son are both occasional users of my iMac and both have their own accounts. Each of them can only see their own files. I'm about to purchase an External drive for backups and will eventually use Time Machine when I upgrade to Leopard. I'm concerned that all users will be able to see all of the backup files on the external drive, making the whole account structure/privacy a bit pointless. Is this correct and if so what can I do to ensure that each can only see their own backups - separate portable external drives is not an option!
