password.”

Managing Software Update Preferences
You can specify one software update server to use per user or group.
Mac OS X Server lets you stage your own software updates from a local server for a
specific user population. This has the advantage of freeing up external network
bandwidth while also giving the system administrator the ability to turn off or force
specific updates.
To manage access to Software Update:
1 In Workgroup Manager, click Preferences.
2 Make sure the right directory is selected and that you are authenticated for it.
To switch directories, click the small globe above the accounts list. If you are not
authenticated, click the lock.
3 Select one or more users, groups, or computer lists.
4 Click Software Update.
5 Set the management setting to Always.
6 Specify a URL of the form: someserver.apple.com:8080/.
7 Click Apply Now.
Managing Access to System Preferences
You can specify which System Preferences are visible to users and which preferences
users can modify. Users can open any item that appears in System Preferences but they
may not be able to change its settings. Some preferences, such as Startup Disk
preferences, always require an administrator name and password.
The preferences that appear in Workgroup Manager are those installed on the
computer you’re currently using. If your administrator computer is missing any System
Preferences, you should either install them or use Workgroup Manager on an
administrator computer that has those preferences installed.
To manage access to System Preferences:
1 In Workgroup Manager, click Preferences.
2 Make sure the right directory is selected and that you are authenticated for it.
To switch directories, click the small globe above the accounts list. If you are not
authenticated, click the lock.
