Hi Jim

There is some software called Deep Freeze Mac you'll find it on  
google. Sorry I don't have a url to hand on the iPhone. I've not used  
it myself but know a friend who does. To the best of my knoledge it  
restores the mac to a given state when a user logs out. And I think  
that's what your after.

Failing that you might be able to use self healing from Casper but I  
would think the CPU usage and network throughput would be huge  
checking the whole mac.

Last resort, have your macs boot to your restore image / neetboot at  
night and get them to rebuild.

Just a few thoughts.
