Sounds like something for the resourcekit group. Copying it there so Nick sees it (even though Nick sees everything, I know it).

Maybe our friends at Casper could setup a space for us somewhere with them since the group is already together.

Everyone

I have had a drop box account for a while now at www.getdropbox.com.  I was thinking it would be cool if we maybe signed up and started a Macintosh System's Administrator group.  Instead of emailing scripts, configs, and documents to each other we can just share our shared drop box folders.  The service is web based, free, uses HTTPS port 443, and while there is no way to set up groups yet but we could share our files and keep them sync'd instead of hunting down that email you maybe saved or maybe trashed.

Anyone think this is a good idea let me know and I will share my dropbox with you.  I already have a scripts folder I share with my fellow IT workers.

thx

Subject: [Resourcekit] Scripts for Disabling Updates: Apple, Adobe, Microsoft
Message-ID: <7ACFC2FB-1EC8-4B1F-9B3B-24D0C4CD1F48@creativetechs.com>

For everyone who wants an easy way to turn off automatic updates, here  
is a link to download a tested script that disables:
	- Apple Software Update
	- Adobe CS3/CS4 Updater
	- Microsoft Office 2004/2008 AutoUpdate

http://www.makemacwork.com/disable-automatic-updates.htm

We spent a lot of time working and testing various scripts last week,  
and this one seems to be working properly on all our test systems when  
deployed with Casper.

I hope this is useful. We had a lot of fun working on it.

I'm including the resourcekit group in this email too, in case Nick  
thinks this might something good to include in future kits.

We'd appreciate any feedback on this script. We'll make updates as  
needed.

~Craig
