you can actually use an open apple reset and then type g f (exactly like that) then 
press return then it goes to finder anyways to bypass it.  there was also an 
application called fool proof that limited access to machines the ability to write and

I think there were some network versions of At Ease that locked the disk out
if started with another disk, but I am not sure. I have only worked with the
regular retail version, which I love and still use all the time.

I pulled out the owner's manual for At Ease 2. With that release it was 
possible to start from another boot disk and remove the at ease 
settings. At least that is the method listed in the back of the manual 
as the way to get back in if you loose the administrator password.

Disk format utilities often include an option to password protect a 
volume, so you could create a password protected partition that only 
you could access. As I recall Stuffit Deluxe had the ability to create 
encrypted files as did early versions of PGP.

If you are running a system up through 7.5.5 you can create users in 
PowerTalk and files placed in users box will be unaccessible to other 
users with out proper permission.

How about making these preferences INVISIBLE from within ResEdit? Steff

I may be off base but I think it must be doable. I suspect At Ease can 
be configured to handle that stuff because IIRC when I was in HS they 
locked down the machines with a fairly early version which we were not 
able to floppy-boot to get around... Again I can't be certain but if 
memory serves (it doesn't always of course, and this was some 12 or so 
yrs ago) this should be doable.

Anyway it bears experimentation.

That has always been a disadvantage of At Ease. Once you have booted the
machine with another startup disk, you can go into the preferences folder,
and throw away At Ease Preferences. All your passwords and settings are then
gone, and anyone can reboot on the main disk without any passwords. I've
actually liked that feature, because I have bought old machines with At Ease
protection, and I was able to change the password that way! Anyway, I know

I think it is available as a free download from the Apple archive
site. I think!
I think it's free updates only.
If it is free to download the full version, someone post a link!

Re: [q] multiple users setup for 8.1 or7.5?

At Ease is the best way to do that prior to system 9 (it only runs up
through system 8.6). I use it all the time, it allows you to both password
protect, and choose which programs will be available to different individual
users. I think it is available as a free download from the Apple archive
site. I think!
