So I'm a new (novice) sysadmin for a small lab at my university and I want to make creating new user accounts easier. On the server there is a shared partition of user files, and the last admin correctly set it up where only each account name has a folder by that name that only he can access.

I can't seem to figure out how they managed to do that if not by hand, any suggestions? I can only assume that theres some way to do that through the server software.

If it is a domain, you can configure a home directory on the properties of the user account. By default, only that user has access to their home directory. Everyone else (including admins) get access denied. Administrators can always add themselves, of course.

Awesome thanks. I think that's what I'm looking for.
