Hello everyone. I am the tech liason for a very small rural school in Alaska. We are a mac district and have computers running everything from 10.6.8 to 10.10. We do not have funds for a local server here so all students do not have their own logins; we just have a student and a staff login.
What I would like to do is configure a disk image that sets up security measures that do not allow students to change the desktop (background, files, etc.) and prevents them from installing programs.
Essentially, I want to store these images on a portable hard drive and be able to just deploy my configured copy of OSX on each machine. I have plans in place for staff training to try and prevent students from messing with our technology in the future (the computers are for school use only; not personal use).
Any help is much appreciated. I am fairly tech-saavy but for some reason I cannot figure out a good way to do this.
