I would also check to see what directories that everyone has rights to. The
default rights granted when you create a user are, all rights to his/her home
directory, all rights granted to everyone, all rights granted to every group
that he/she is a member, all inheritances, and create rights in every users
mail. I think you can use grant statements in the login script, provided the
user has the rights to execute them when he/she logs in. This could be tough to
track down, but it would a nightmare with "the tree". Run the security command
and redirect it to text file.It's a good starting point. luck
