[OPLINTECH] CDR/W for public workstations

[Matthew Augustine]

Chris,

We thought about CDR/W drives, but came to the conclusion that they would be too much of a hassle.  

The better option is to open the USB ports and allow the use flash memory drives.

If you are concerned about people running executables from the flash drives, take a look at a program called Trust-No-Exe.

  Hello,

  We want to make CDR/W drives available to our public.  We are using Win XP sp2 and Office 2003.  We are using Microsoft Group Policy Management and Public Web Browser to control the public workstations.  Are any of you providing CDR/W drives for your patrons to save documents?  If you are, we'd like to know how you are configuring the public PC.   TIA
