Same here - /Users/stereo/Desktop is chmod 700 on OSX 10.0.4, both
Server and "Standalone". The template for new user directories is stored
at:
/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/Admin.framework/Resources/English.lproj/
user.gnutar. You might want to check if the template's permissions are
set correctly.
Hope this helps :)
