Hello -

Is there a way to use one of the Casper tools to disable Dashboard on lab
machines (all Macs running 10.4.11)?

I've tried doing this via ARD (3.2) using these commands:

defaults write com.apple.dashboard mcx-disabled -boolean YES;
killall Dock

I paste that in the Unix window in ARD and try to run the command as root

-- but I get this error message "No matching processes were found"

Any idea on what's wrong? Is there a better way to do this?

Thank you!

Jeff
