continue to do so while we explore other possibilities. To give you some
information on our setup, both teachers and students have individual
accounts for accessing the network, and we have both Leopard, Windows XP
and Windows Vista computers accessing the network. There are areas for
student access and for teacher access, maintained using ACL's. When a
teacher logs on to a computer (or mounts the network share from a laptop
that's not in the domain) he/she automatically has access to the report
cards folder. We've added password protection on EACH file so that if a
student happens to use a teacher computer, he/she could not accidentally
(or deliberately) tamper with a report card. The problem is that some
teachers end up having to enter in this password for each of the 150
students that he/she teaches. They find this to be inconvenient and time
consuming. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to maintain
security of the report cards while removing this inconvenience and
inefficiency?
