[comp.sys.mac.system] How to disable startup disk switching

Hi,
	Is there any way of keeping users from booting a macintosh under
the regular finder so that they cannot switch launch their finder and so
bypass the system on the hard disk? I always boot off a hard disk under
multifinder.
	I know there is security software for macs so that you can
control access to the macs, but a weak point tends to be that if the
mac is rebooted under single finder, a user can just change the startup
volume and circumvent the security system. This is why I'm looking for
methods of disabling startup switching.
	Is there anything that will either make the mac ignore any
initial keys held down during startup(so will always end up
under multifinder) or any way of disabling the various methods of
startup switching?

Send mail to me, I'll summarize to the group if I get enough ideas....
