[Casper] security feature request...

[Tom Francais]

I¹ve noticed users are not able to log in while Casper is installing Adobe
CS3. It looks like Casper starts a process called jamfHelper to block user
logins. I¹d like a way to keep users out. Does anyone know if we could use
jamfHelper in our own scripts or is it a private utility reserved for JAMF
use?
