Managing Access to System Preferences
Using the System Preferences pane of the Applications preference, you can select which
preferences you want users to be able to see in System Preferences on the client computer.
When you show an item in System Preferences, a user can open the preference, but may or
may not be able to change its settings. For example, if you set preference management for
the Dock to Always and you choose to show Dock preferences to users, a user can view the
settings but cannot make any changes.
Some System Preferences may not be available on your administrator computer. You should
either install the missing preferences on the administrator computer you are using, or you
should use Workgroup Manager on an administrator computer that has those preferences
installed.
To manage access to System Preferences:
1 Open Workgroup Manager.
2 Use the At pop-up menu to find the directory domain that contains the account you want,
then click Preferences.
3 Click the lock and enter your user name and password.
4 Select a user, group, or computer account in the account list, then click the Applications
preference icon.
5 Click System Preferences.
6 Set the management setting to Always.
7 Deselect the Show checkbox for each item you do not want to display in a user’s System
Preferences.
Click Show None to deselect every item in the list.
Click Show All to select every item in the list.
8 Click Apply Now.
Managing Classic Preferences
Classic Preferences are used to set Classic startup options, select the Classic System Folder,
set sleep options for Classic, and make certain Apple menu items available to users.
Classic Startup Preferences
Startup settings affect what happens when Classic starts.
