I'm failing in my attempt to create a .webloc file on all users desktop that the students cannot delete. I've create a DMG in composer with the .webloc file and the permissions set to 444. I deploy the DMG through Casper with FUT and FEU (either as a...

I've looked through this site and others and can't find the best way to manage Parental Controls on OS X 10.11 MacBook Airs. The laptops are mostly now in the hands of students, and I would love to be able to do 1 of 2 things. 1.) Set parental contro...

@Eigger I just responded to that other post as well. The method I used ended up causing similar issues for me and I had to revert the changes. The time past and I don't currently need to create a shortcut that can't be deleted at all, so I haven't lo...

@Eigger I ended up having to roll back using the option to lock the file (last line in the script). It's been a few months, but I believe it was causing exactly what you are seeing. When it locked the file on the users desktop it ended up causing own...
