Hi there,
	We have a little problem with the boot disks. First of all let me explain the situation: 
	When the students want to use our server they have to boot with ou
	disks. Thay contain the IPX ant NETx and the FTP drivers,so we hav
	to use MARKNET and RELNET to make available TCP/IP and Novell.
	So far, this was a good solution, but later we have to reconfigure
	tha disks because the students delete the programs they have to put 
	their archives.
	
	What we want to do is:
	1. Allow MARKNET and RELNET to write in the disks.
	2. Disable the write, copy, modify, delete functions to any other thing
	3. But, always is a but, we have to do this in the disks via software
	   and NOT in the drive, because then the students would not be able to
	   write in their own disks.

If anybody had this problem and solved it, or if someone has any idea on how to
solve it we will be very gratefull. You can contact me at:
