    Thunderbird extensions for OSX server users

    Howdy! I'm having a problem installing a signature extension in Thunderbird for normal users logging in to Mac OSX.

    Disable programs on OS X server

    I'd say that too, but I'm not sure what is was trying to access. I had Entourage in the list of approve apps. I f you have any idea what it might have trying to access, do tell :) I'm very close to wiping OSX off both the server and clients and loading Gentoo instead. Management is so much...

    Disable programs on OS X server

    Finally figured it out. There is a checkbox when choosing apps to allow approved apps to open nonapproved apps. After allowing that Dashboard works fine. One other note is that Entourage (yech) also breaks if this is disabled. Thanks for the help!

    OS X Server and local drives on client machines

    Home dirs are on the server. The problem I'm having is when a user saves an email from their MacMail client (IMAP) to a folder on the local machine. They can't get to those saved emails on another machine.

    OS X Server and local drives on client machines

    I'm trying to disable users from write access to the local drives on their machines. I only want them to save files to their home folder on our OS X server. I'm kinda new to OS X server and welcome any suggestions. Thanks.
