m If you want to limit the preferences copied, you can choose to copy only Internet

preferences and administrator-defined preferences. Preference folders for Web browsers
are copied, but the cache folders inside them are deleted. Using this option can
significantly lighten the load on the server and have less of an impact on login and logout
times.

If you use this option, Macintosh Manager will always copy the following preference files
and folders:

Explorer (cache folder inside is deleted)

Fetch Preferences

Internet Preferences

JPEGView Preferences

NCSA Telnet Preferences

Netscape ƒ (cache folder inside is deleted)

Newswatcher Preferences

RealAudio Player Preferences

StuffIt Expander Preferences

To set how Mac OS 8 user preferences are copied:

1

In Macintosh Manager, click Global, and then click Security.

2

Select one of these options:

To copy all preference items, select “Copy entire Preferences folder.”

To copy only certain preference items, select “Copy only Internet or administrator-defined
preferences.”

3

Click Save.

Using Global CD-ROM Settings

Global CD-ROM settings let you allow access to all CDs and DVDs or to only a specific list of
discs. When you make a disc available to Macintosh Manager, you can view its contents, and
then you can allow users access to all items on the disk or just the items you select.

Note: These settings do not apply to audio CDs. The audio CD setting is in the Privileges
pane of the Workgroups pane.

To create a list of available discs and disc items:

1

In Macintosh Manager, click Global, and then click CD-ROMs.

2

Insert a CD or DVD.
