To Campus Macintosh Lab Managers: I am evaluating hard disk security packages to protect Macintosh hard disks in public access labs. My concerns are: * Protecting the disks from virus infection * Protecting the installed system and software from corruption * Preventing unauthorized users from storing data files * Protecting applications from being illegally copied onto floppies I have seen a number of packages here on the net: SecurInit, GuardDog, MacPassword, VolumeImage. None of these seemed to do all that I want, although I am open to being persuaded otherwise. I am interested in hearing the real-world experiences of lab managers with these or other products. I'm sure that this is a commom problem, and I hope that someone has found a reasonable solution. Please send email; I'll summarize to the net. Thanks, Phil Harriman University of Rochester Computing Center paha@db2.cc.rochester.edu (Internet) paha@uordbv (BITNET) (716) 275-2811
