I am in a school environment and would like to manage the students iTunes usage. I have figured out how to restrict the radio and other features, using the workgroup manager and groups, however when a student logs in the default state of iTunes parental controls is unlocked. I have not been...

OK I finally get it. I was not aware that there was really much diference between share points and group folders. The only real bonus they get from using them is that you can have the folder automounted on the doc when they log in. Which I am sure can be accomplished in another way. Thanks...

Personally I don't really see how this is working myself. I am not the one who set up the servers so maybe they did something out of the ordinary. In workgroup manager I have made myself a member of several groups. Group1 is a group called test it's group ID is 21 and it has no group folder...

I don't think we are talking about the same thing. When I say that I can only choose one. When I put in my username and password I then get sent to a screen which puts all the groups I belong to in a vertical list, I have tried to select more than one however it will not let me do so. Just...

Thanks for that clarification. OK so I see where you are comming from with the multiple groups as long as there is no share point. But as soon as you belong to even one group that has a share point it now makes you choose one. Why not just connect you to the folders for the groups you are a...

If the groups that they are assigned to are above 50 then they must choose which group they want every time.

Your reply comes at a very good time. I have just answered my own question. In workgroup manager if you assign a user to more than one group with a group number that is automatically assigned lets say in the 1000 range. When that user attempts to log in they will be asked to choose which...

I am new to Unix and OS X server. I have seen that if you assign a user to more than one group the user must select one on log in. However if one of the groups is Staff they do not have to choose. What is the Staff group and can you create other groups like it?

We have a X serve running OS x 10.4 with home folders on the server. Every once in a while we will get a call saying that a user cannot log in. I will goto the workgroup manager to check the account to find that there is no account for this user. I then check the corrisponding server to find...

I must not have been very clear, sorry. I will explain it as just one classroom. I have a total of 8 computers in the classroom, the teachers computer and 7 student computers. These are all in the same room all the time. The business office has purchased 1 USB printer for each teacher...

I am at a school, we have several classrooms where the teacher is sharing a usb printer out. I want the student to print to the teacher printer. I don't want the child to have to choose the printer. I want to write a script to delete any exsisting printers and set the current printer for...

We have several hundred users logging into 10.4 Xserves. On occasion I will get a call saying that a user cannot log in. When I go to reset the password I find that the user is not in Workgroup Manager. I then check the server that hosts their home folder and find that it is there. I end up...
