It offers two types of protection: Non-restrictive protection allows users to make changes to the home directory, but restores the entire directory to its exact original configuration after a logout, restart, selected time interval, or on a selected day of the week. Restrictive protection enables administrators to specify read, write, and execute privileges on-the-fly on a per-user basis for any file, folder, application, or system preference pane--on any drive. Version 1.8 is compatible with Panther/Tiger, while the previous version is comaptible with Jaguar. Pricing starts at $28 per workstation.
