I've got a lab I look after for another faculty where (for ... um...
"non technical" reasons) the owners of that lab have their students
login using a single, managed, local account.
I now need to change permissions on this managed account so that they
can't run FireFox or IE (Yeh I.E. for mac in all it's obsolete glory-
they had insisted earlier that I install this off of the old macs on
to their new intel iMacs)
I'm assuming that I can do this via a unix using chmod (the account is
also a group)?
however is there a "easier" way to script this through Apple Script
and/or Apple Remote Desktop's scripting?
