Site definitions & HDD protection
|
|
|
| Hi all. A plea for help with this.
Our school has a site licence for Dreamweaver, which saves its site
information in the registry.
We also use HD Guard (and previously, Sheriff Cards) which throw away any
changes students make to the hard disk (i.e. Dreamweaver site definitions would
be thrown away when the PC restarted).
Does anyone run Dreamweaver with HD Guard / Sheriff cards / Zero cards or
similar devices?
I'd REALLY like to know how to do it without a nasty kludge (exporting site
definitions and re-importing them each session).
Many thanks

| Do any of these "protective" applications permit you to "whitelist" certain
changes like DW caching?

| I think you would need to contact Macromedia directly about this.

| Alas, no whitelisting. The software throws away all changes to the HDD after a restart...

|
| from what i can find, that thing is a PCI card and software that can be
configured to do a complete rollback on reboot. Something designed to wipe
out any changes period.

It's doing what it's made to do.
it may be possible to get in with the admin or priv. user settings to allow
things. check the link for the user manual.
http://www.eksitdata.com/guard/pdf/...Guardmanual.zip
But probably not. Or the person with admin password will say no. Or there is
no admin and the boxes are all locked down till they are thrown away or that
PCI card is ripped from their little fiberglas motherboards. Freedom-------
nevermind, wandering.
Depending on if the students are logging in as individual users, or as a
single user (like have them all run dreamweaver as user: dreamweaver)
You could use this third party utility to backup the site defs at night and
restore them in the morning in a single operation. A windows person could
maybe make a .bat file to run it at shutdown/startup perhaps. Or contact the
author about an automatic restore on a machine that's set to wipe stuff
every time it reboots.
