Startup Item Security E-mail
Written by Greg Neagle   
Tuesday, 07 March 2006
Recently, the site "rixstep.com" published an article purporting to expose a major security flaw in OS X. The article has since been softened in tone and now acknowledges the additional security that Tiger adds. In reality, this "vulnerability" is nothing new, and nothing to get overly concerned about.

Mobile User Syncing E-mail
Written by Scott Klauminzer   
Thursday, 24 March 2005

MobileUserSync is a backup tool allowing for Home Folder backup to a remote server or local Volume using the rsync protocol. With enterprise/education features such as mass deployment and configuration and Backup Administrator notification it can perform well in most any environment.

Image It is equally at home backing up your home computer to your work computer, as it is being used to sync 500 local Mac Users to their Network Home directories in an enterprise or education environment.

Syncs are initiated on each logout, and each user of a single computer can have their own set of MobileUserSync preferences. Preferences specify whether or not to backup that user, what exactly to backup and what to exclude.

Administrators have granular control over exactly what is to be backed up and excluded for each user, while the GUI interface is useful for a novice to advanced user.

Advanced Firewall Configuration E-mail
Written by Philip Rinehart

Before proceeding to in-depth configuration, an examination of the technology behind the firewall is useful.
