A friend of mine has just installed a Mac SE/30 and a laser writer in
her office.  The hard drive on this machine has been set up to include
a folder for each of the applications that the office uses.  Users
have their own diskettes and save all their own work (and backups).  

The problem is that many of the (6 or 7) users are inexperienced Mac
users, and there have been some problems on the hard drive.  Someone
accidentally deleted some application related files last week and this
week microsoft word was moved in to the system folder and no one could
find it to start it up.

Is there some kind of application that locks down the folders on the
disk, or protects the integrity of files on a drive, to prevent this
kind of confusion from occuring?

Please reply via e-mail.
