Why are you worried about people on the wireless network, which the Mac user has access to if I read correctly? Is the wireless not running security?

No it is not. The reason is simple: We have conference space, and presenters from outside the agency do presentations here frequently, sometimes in the evenings or on weekends. These presenters usually bring their own laptops for PowerPoint displays, and sometimes need to have internet access on those machines.

Just a thought...what I've done in these situations is have two WIFI boxes...a good one with protection (WPA2 password) and a cheaper one (like a Netgear for $60) that has no password. Set the cheap WIFI up with access to the Internet and nothing else.

Well yeah--but it's a big building, presentations can occur in a variety of places. We have three WiFi access points; now I'd need six. And I would also increase the number of service calls by some significant percentage, involving staff who can't remember the WiFi password.

I try to keep things simple and convenient--for the staff and for myself.

Thanks.
