Is there anyway to prevent users from clearing out browsing history from any browser (Safari, Firefox, Chrome)?

+18Why would you want to prevent that? An unending history isn't exactly a plus.
+7We have a situation where we are needing to access history in the event of misuse. We'd like to be able to flush it manually.
+10Hmm… You could have a script copy ~/Library/Safari/History.plist somewhere every so often. Not exactly a thorough approach.
+18There are solutions to this on the server-side which are a much better method.
Enforcing a web-based policy on browsing by keeping endless histories just seems like a bad idea all-around.
+7Fair enough. I'm up for any kind of solution. Can you give me some more details about some server side solutions?
