i setup a Powerbook G4 with VPC 7 and XP. A couple of other users will share
this Mac, using UNIQUE login accounts, and i want them to be able to use the
same virtual copy of XP i configured, how do i do this, without having to
install XP from scratch for each user account?

thanks
Bob

Man I ran into this a couple of years ago. I don't recall if I ever did get
it working properly with permissions to allow all the users to access the
VPC Windows 98 drive file. I remember it causing problems with users who
did not create/install it.
