Re: Public Machine Access

[Cal Frye <cjf () CALFRYE COM>]

Our desktop support folks have been very clever with the use of policies so that
we get away with not allowing students admin access to the lab machines. We use
Zenworks' Dynamic Local User to remove each user's profile upon logout,
encouraging them to save files to their home directory on the server (where it
gets backed up, too ;-)

Curious -- how did the admin rights issue get lost for you?
