So... I have these Lab computers....
There is a file on them I want to Lock (as in, get info, check the "Lock" box).
I don't want to do that 28 times.
I have Apple Remote Desktop.
WIth ARD I can send a Terminal command, essentially just like I was sitting at one of the computers with Terminal open.
SO..
Question for a relative Noob to the command line;
Say I want to lock the file "/Users/student/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.plist/"...
How do I type that?
I'm paging through "Mac OS X Unleased" which is 96% command line tips, tricks, and stuff...and I can't find what I assumed was a fairly BASIC command!
Am I wrong that it should be simple?
