How to stop grouped users from seeing all users?

I have several users organized into groups, and would like to make is so that users can't see people outside of their group (or groups). No matter how I tweak permissions, all users get to see every other user no matter what group they're in.
That is unacceptable and makes Server pretty useless when we need to protect the ID of our users. How can I make it so that users see only the other users in their group?
Thanks in advance!

Replying to my own query as it may help other noobsters.
I've been able to control which users and groups can see a project by using the following schema:
Create Project Wikis by creating a group with the project name, giving the group a shared folder and creating a group Wiki. Edit Access to Services and check only those services needed by the project. For example, check File Sharing and FTP for Wiki and FTP service.
Create People categories by creating a group with the name of that group of people. For example, you could organize people by firm or department or staff category. Do not create a shared folder or group Wiki. Edit Access to Services and uncheck all services. The people groups will acquire the services and permissions they need from the Projects they join as members.
Create users and require them to log in. Make sure "administer this computer" is unchecked and the Home Folder: drop down reads "None - Services Only." Edit Access to Services and uncheck all services. Users will acquire the services and permissions they need from the Groups they join as members.
Now, add users to the people groups as appropriate. For example, add all engineers to the Engineers Group. Next add people groups to project groups as appropriate. For example, the Engineers Group may be added to the Bridge Project Group as well as the Building Project Group.
Once you have users in your groups of people and groups of people in your project groups you can start the Wiki then point to it with your favorite browser. Sign in with the same username you used to create the Wikis. Select a Project Wiki then click on the gear in the upper right corner. Choose "Wiki Settings..." from the drop down menu.
In the Wiki Settings dialog that appears, click on "Permissions" in the left pane. Enter the name of the Project (Group) then set its permissions to "Read &Write." Change the permissions for "All logged in users" and "All unauthorized users" to "None." Save changes.
Now sign in as a user with limited permissions and verify that they can see only those wikis they're supposed to see.
On the FTP side, they'll be able to see all group folders but they can only open those they have access to. Not great, but better than a kick in the head.

    How to stop the dock from showing all hidden images when hiding then showing applications

    It's not really something to snap a screen shot of. I believe it would need to be a video clip. For instance, when I am working on multiple images in Photoshop, I often need many images open at the same time, but I only have one image viewable and active. The hero image is active on screen while I hide the other images in the dock by hitting the yellow - button on the images. Then I "Hide" Photoshop to do something in the Finder. When I go back to Photoshop, every image that is hidden in the dock will pop open again in the active window, not just the image I was currently working on. I want these images to stay in the dock until I need them, no matter how many times I Hide the Show Photoshop.

  • How to stop iTunes 9 from deleting all my app data ?!

    I used to sync my phone to two computers:
    - Media and apps on my iMac
    - "Info" (Calendars, Contacts) and Photos on my MacBook Air.
    I simply had different items checkmarked for synching on the two machines.
    This worked perfectly until iTunes 9. With 9, when I plugged into my Air to synch my calendar, it started copying all my apps to the laptop! I simply canceled that.
    NOW, when I connect back to my iMac, the phone instantly and automatically starts deleting all my apps and replacing them with fresh copies! I am losing ALL my vital app data! (Plus it started installing tons of unwanted apps that I had unchecked--which will fill up the phone at some point.)
    How can I stop this automatic deletion? I've now downloaded the 9.0.1 patch but I'm afraid to even plug in my phone again!
    Before canceling the synch, I've already lost everything through the "A's" including some vital work stuff and hours of hard-earned game progress. Some could be recovered via TIme Machine and restoring an older backup... but I have some really important stuff on my phone since that last backup, and I don't want to wipe it.
    Thanks for any advice.

    Wiping my phone, restoring from backup, AND wiping all iTunes related files (from a search in Library and in Music) seems to have stopped this behavior.
    (I couldn't wipe the iTunes files on the machine with my media and apps, but I did so on the other machine--where I only sync contacts, calendars and bookmarks. My iTunes library is empty there anyway.)
    I don't know if this relates to an "app synching" issue that iTunes 9.0.1 fixed. Could be.

    How  to stop  the users from changing User Profile

    Hai,
    It is not possible to restrict SU3 to display, because it has only S_TCODE has the authorization object.
    If you really want to restrict users from changing their profile you have to remove the SU3 access and give SU1 or SU2 which gives access only to Personnel details and Parameters.
    Hope this helps.

    how can i prevent everyone on the group message from seeing everyone else's replies?

    Thanks! makes sense.  When I replied to a message earlier, I noticed I replied to everyone in the group again. so your saying if I create a new thread  from the person i want to reply to , the message will only go to that one person? meaning i have to tap the reply bubble from that person to create the new thread?

    If the program settings are set to hidden, it should be hidden. You do not need to specify any client settings. If you changed the program settings and the machines already had policy, you will have to wait up to your 60 minute policy setting or just manually
    kick off a policy update to see the new hidden program.
    If they are still getting the interactive install, then you need to troubleshoot if the machine has gotten proper policy. Run a 'Machine policy retrieval and evaluation cycle' manually, wait a few minutes and then test again.
    Suppress program notifications are the tray icons and bubble notifications about installations happening. Hidden is the method in which the executable/msi will install.

    How to stop volume icon from being displayed randomly

    Thanks for the quick response.
    I have a number of slides which act as a training module. The quiz follows this. All the answers to the quiz are in the module slides. I'd like the user to be able to see which questions they're failing on, but not be shown the answers, as, if they are failing the quiz, the whole module needs to be reviewed and the test retaken.
    If this isn't possible, I'll probably just remove the review option, thereby meaning my retake button can stay, and the user can just go back and re-read the module slides to learn the answers.
    Thanks

  • How to stop Time Machine from backing up Temp Files?

    Hi folks!
    I am trying to find out how to stop Time Machine from constantly backing up 'useless' temporary files accumulated from web browsing? Although I don't change or add large files to my HD, Time Machine backs up hundreds of MBs every hour. Those file amounts make sense when I consider that I browse a lot to YouTube, SoundCloud, etc to watch videos or listen to music - I just don't want them to be backed up.
    Under Time Machine Options I already excluded the following items from backups:
    ~/Library/Caches
    /Library/Caches
    ~/Downloads
    But even though I did this weeks ago, Time Machine stills finds large files to be backed up every hour and my only guess is that I am still missing a location where either Safari or Firefox - the two web browsers I use - store temporary files.
    Can you help?
    Thanks a lot in advance!

    Are you sure you need that? There are no viruses that run on OSX. None. Zip. Zero.
    If you're running Windoze on your Mac, that's the same as running it on a PC, so it needs all the same anti-everything stuff you'd use on a PC.
    There is some "malware," such as Trojans, for Macs, though. But (unlike viruses that can get onto your system without your knowledge), you must approve their installation (via your Admin password) and/or operation (via the "This application was downloaded from the internet ..." prompt).
    Appropriately enough, some of these Trojans are included in pirated versions of Apple software, such as iWork!

    Thanks a lot again!
    You're quite welcome, and thanks for posting back.

  • How to stop PR creation from PM work order for a particular vendor?

    Hello Experts,
    We have following scenario for breakdown maintenance activities.
    When a machine breaks down, a breakdown order is created in SAP. The external manintenance services are planned in the order. When the order is released, a single PR (with multiple item numbers corresponding to number of services) is created by SAP. The PR has a release strategy. When PR is released, PO is created followed by the SES.
    The practice followed AS -IS for breakdown outside business hours:- If the breakdown happens outside business working hours, the person releasing the PRs is not available & hence PR can not be released resulting in no PO & no subsequent SES.
    In this case, the maintenance is completed by the external agency & the work order is TECO. The next day, TECO is reveresed, new PR is created, released, converted into PO, & then SES.
    TO-BE process:- Client expects that, for certain vendors identified, PR should not get created at all from the breakdown order. (The list of  vendors will be maintained seperately). For these vendors, a framework order will be created at the start of fiscal year & SES will be created as & when required agaainst the framework order.
    My concern is :- How to stop PR creation from PM work order for a particular vendor? OR delete the created PR?
    Highly appreciate your quick response.
    Thank you.

    Dear Amit
    I am giving a different dimension to your question check if it fulfills your requirement -
    As we know Vendor selection comes at a later stage only after your PR creation, approval & RFQ etc. & PR generation from maintaine. order is controllled through control key PM03.  While triggering PR from order you have to specify Material group, Purchase group and vendor. Try to control it through authorisation as all these are authorisation objects. The persons executing breakdown order shall no t be given this authoriations

    How to stop the Calendar from editing your input?

    I am constantly finding that Calendar Version 8.0 thinks it knows what I want to type but it incorrectly takes numbers and days and times out of my input and changes my appointments. I hate this new supposedly "smart" feature. Even when I edit my event correctly a second or third time it rewrites my input incorrectly again. I have to use my iPhone to override the annoying editing on my mac. I am ready to find a new calendar program unless Apple allows users to input what they want without their information being incorrectly edited.

  • How to send group emails from ipad

    How to send group emails from ipad

    Thanks.  So matters haven't changed.  Ipad and iohone systems still not make use of the groups created in OSX Contacts, although one can "see" the groups synced through iCloud.  They just do not function as real distribution lists in Mail.
    With the Mailshot app, one creates Mailshot groups with Mailshot group name.  It's as smooth as a work around can get.
    Silly that Apple iOS folks never got around to connecting the contact groups now listed in iOS Contacts through iCloud syncing to also be fully functional in iOS Mail for the purpose of group emailing.
