To protect the desktop:

4 Click Save.
Preventing Applications From Altering Files
Enforcing file-level security prevents applications from writing to protected folders and files,
but it may cause some older applications to report disk errors or have problems opening. If
you don’t enforce file-level security, applications can write information (for example,
temporary data or preferences) wherever necessary.
File-level security is available only for Mac OS 9 clients and applies only to applications. It
does not affect user access to folders and files.
To enable file-level security:
1 In Macintosh Manager, click Workgroups, and then click Privileges.
2 Select a workgroup in the Workgroups list.
3 Select “Enable file level security for Mac OS 9 workstations,” then click Save.
Preventing Access to FireWire Disks
You can enable file-level security to prevent users in a Panels workgroup from accessing
FireWire hard disks that are mounted at startup. This applies only to Mac OS 9 clients and
does not affect Finder or Restricted Finder workgroups.
Allowing Users to Play Audio CDs
Users in a Finder workgroup can always play audio CDs. Panels or Restricted Finder
workgroups don’t automatically have that privilege, but you can give it to them.
To allow users to play audio CDs:
1 In Macintosh Manager, click Workgroups, and then click Privileges.
2 Select a Panels or Restricted Finder workgroup in the Workgroups list.
3 Select “Play audio CDs,” then click Save.
Some CDs contain more than just audio tracks. If the first track on a CD is an audio track,
then it is an audio CD.
