Ejecting Items Automatically When a User Logs Out

On computers used by more than one person, such as in a computer lab, users may
sometimes forget to take their personal media with them when they leave. If they do not
eject disks, CDs, or DVDs when they log out, these items may be available to the next user
who logs in.

If you allow users to access CDs, DVDs, or external disks such as Zip disks or FireWire drives
on shared computers, you may want to make computers eject removable media
automatically when a user logs out.

To eject removable media automatically:

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 Media Access
preference icon.

5

Set the management setting to Always. This setting applies to all Media Access preference
options.

6

Click Other Media.

7

Select “Eject all removable media at logout.”

8

Click Apply Now.

Managing Printing Preferences

Use Printing preferences to create printer lists and manage access to printers.

Printer List Preferences

Printer List settings let you create a list of available printers and control the user’s ability to
add additional printers or access a printer connected directly to a computer.
