[comp.sys.mac.system] LaserWriter invisible to Chooser

GAUJCT@latvax8.lat.oz (08/22/90)

I believe that there is a means of making a LaserWriter selectively 'invisible'
to the Chooser.  We would like to have some control, like this, which would
restrict access to selected users on our local network.  This has become more
urgent with the recent expansion of our University network.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

There is a shareware init available on the net called "ChooserUser" which
restricts access to the chooser without the correct password. Once the
controls are set, when the user selects the chooser, it cannot be changed. If
the person goes to the control panel (oops, it is a C/Dev) and selects the
icon, s/he must enter a password to access the ChooserUser Settings.

I am not sure if this is what you are looking for, or if it will help, but
that is my $.02 worth....
