----------------------------Original message---------------------------- Greetings, in partial answer to your question about Mac Security, I have tried several different programs including At Ease, On Guard, and Foolproof. My students at a high school hacked through At Ease the first day. However, I understand Apple is coming out with a new program called Administrators Toolkit or something like that with a beefed up version of At Ease and a variety of network management tools; I plan on looking at it. On Guard was very secure, very flexible, but in my experience also very buggy. I had to perform lots of maintenance using Norton Utilities; daily unfortunately. However, On Guard allows more flexible configuration than either At Ease or Foolproof. When I couldn't stand On Guard any more, I switched to Foolproof. Like On Guard, the kids were unable to get through it. But Foolproof does not allow the options of On Guard. So where does that leave you, I would wait and look at the new Apple product myself. good luck Mark
