Operating Systems OS X (Apple) Locking Down Finder Command Preferences Post 302442781 by unimachead on Thursday 5th of August 2010 12:17:20 PM

Locking Down Finder Command Preferences

I understand how to lock down things with the finder in workgroup manager, but for matching commands outside of the workgroup manager realm, what's the best way to insert script in order to disable any one of these features?

Features workgroup manager highlights:

-connect to server
-shut down
-restart
-go to folder
-burn disc
-eject
-go to idisk
-burn disc

I'd like to push out a script command via ssh with the ability to disable which is the focus.
