[comp.sys.mac] improving appleshare

A few weeks ago I posted these two questions (using many more words)

>How do I remove the Registered User from the AppleShare dialog?

>How do I remove the check boxes for automatic logon in AppleShare?

jb@aries5.uwaterloo.ca 

 answered my questions the most succinctly 


"The answer to the first is in ResEdit, make the DITL window bigger, and drag the items outside the boundaries of the DLOG rectangle.

 [for the second]....What my solution was,  to make the bounding rectangle
of the list narrower, so that the check boxes were unaccessible.

This is done by modifying PACK -4096 in the AppleShare driver. (The code
that actualIy does all the stuff for selecting the disks).
Search for 003b 0032 007b 0l23 003a 0031 007c 0133	003a 0031 007c 0133
These are two rectangles (top, left, bottom,right) The second being
the box drawn around the first. All that I did was change the right
hand co-ordinate of the box to 103 and 113 respectively. ie.
003b 0032 007b 0103                  003a 00031 007c 0113.
This string can be found at offset 35f6."

petechen@rutgers.edu  actually implement answer  #2. I was using an old version of ResEdit., but he was sharp enough to use the current version.
