We added 3 local accounts for video editing on a lab of 2013 iMacs. It added the accounts with no issues.
Video1, Video2, Video3. All with the same password. When logging into any one of them you are prompted for the the Admin password to repair the applications folder. Video1 & 2 both have no access to the Desktop, Downloads, or Documents folders. Video 3 does.
Upon looking into the permissions for Video1 & 2's folders, Video3 has Read&Write access while Everyone Else is denied access, rendering the accounts unusable.
We are going to go through and delete the accounts and add them manually as a temporary fix, but doing this in a busy school district is very difficult. How can I add accounts without getting permissions errors?

Have you taken a look at CreateUserPkg?

I haven't. How exactly does it work?
Download and run the application, then it will ask for a username, password, location, picture, admin or not, and if you want auto logon.
After all that, it will create a .pkg that can easily be deployed to any mac you want using Casper.
Thank you for such a prompt response. I appreciate your help.
