Creating encrypted shares for mac users over AFP

Hi,
We are planning to save our sensible company data on an internal NAS hard drive (Diskstation).
For security, we want to have an encrypted share which can be accessed by several people simultaneously (only from Macs with Mac OS 10.6).
My first thought was to create an encrypted DMG, put it in a shared folder on the NAS and let authorized people mount it. This works fine if only one person at a time wants access. But every consecutive worker cannot open the DMG anymore.
Is there a mean to create such a setup with on-board tools of Mac OS - or with additional software as well?
Thanks,
Simon

Google the search terms "encrypted NAS" and see if anything there is of any help to you.

  • Is there any way to create an installer for Mac OS and Linux OS once a stand alone application is created?

    Is there any way to create an installer for Mac OS and Linux OS once a stand alone application is created?  I have created an executable application that I want to distribute to Mac and Linux users (different applications were created in the respective OS).  I was wondering if there is any way to create an installer?  I think there probably isn't...  If the user were to simply download the Labview Run-time Engine from ni.com would they be able to run the application or is it more complicated than that?
    Thanks so much for your time.

    I think Shane tried to say, that it is on the Mac OS X installation DVD, NOT the LabVIEW for Mac OS X installation medium. And that could very well have changed in recent Mac OS X versions as well. They used to have Xcode on it too, but that seems gone as well.

  • I would like to suggest a Verizon-specific forum for Mac-users

    Verizon is the largest provider of wireless and other related solutions. When I have problems with my Mac or supporting services I am consistently able to find solutions on either the Mac or Verizon forums. However, this takes quite a bit of effort to locate the right answer for my problem. And, this takes a lot of time.
    I would like to harness solutions for Mac-users who are Verizon customers all in one place. This could make it easier for Mac-users to get quick answers. This could also be a great referral point for Verizon as it sorts out answers/solutions for Mac users.
    Currently, Verizon hears from less than .05% of its customers that there are any issues of compatibility, less access to great services, needs for solutions for Mac. However Mac users represent at least 20% of computer users around the US. On the one hand you can infer that there are issues with less than .05% of the Mac universe or, on the other hand, you can infer that many just don't go to Verizon for the solutions.
    I am not sure which is right. I just know that having solutions in one place, my Mac home, would be useful. I hope you will consider the idea.
    I do realize no forums are dedicated to any one provider. However, Verizon, again, is the biggest provider. Maybe this is worthy of a forum.

    It is about the level of question involved and some may already get answered in the "Getting On Line" and similar forums already here.

    Hi,
    I have accidently deleted safari from my iphone and can't find it to put it back. I did it ages ago as I didn't know what it was and I was trying to create extra space!   Now when I click on a link say in an email, it doesn't come up with a browser.  I have looked at the apple site but can only see a download for mac users.  Not sure if this is the case because it is preinstalled on the iphone.
    Help needed please!

  • Trouble with forms not fuctioning for Mac users

    I have created a form in LC Designer that works great on PC, but doesn't work on on Mac. Or rather doesn't work on all Mac machines.  I have tested the form on two different Mac machines in my office and it seems to work fine.  However, those outside the office are not able to save the completed form or allow the user to use the email submit button.  Is there something I can do to make this user-friendly for Mac users?

    The email button function is the least of the issues.  The fonts and type size are altered, parts of the form drop out and the form fields appear to be blank until you click on them.  Upon click the information then appears.  It's really very odd. 
    Additionally, they can not save the form to their desktop.  I thought that this was me forgetting to enable user rights, but that was not the case.  At the moment, Mac users can only print the form and fax it.
    Thanks,

  • No Wimbledon for Mac users

    I would have liked to watch the Wimbledon finals on my computer, but according to their site Apple computers are not supported "due to the digital rights management and sharing technology used".
    http://wimbledon.mediazone.com/US/subscribe.html
    http://img.skitch.com/20080705-dj5mu9mn985trq6f4pn3bufhba.jpg
    I don't know what they're referring to exactly, and honestly I don't really care.
    But I'm tired of things being unavailable for Mac users. Apple, what are you doing about it??
    thanks,
    Liz

    You can view them by paying a subscription. They use the WMV format (bless 'em!) so you will need Flip4Mac WMV Player from... On Wimbledon.com's subscription page, they specifically tell Mac users that they are not supported.
    Unfortunately, it appears they will not be supported on a Mac under OS X. According to a comment on the UK site, it appears viewing will require VMV 10/11 which leaves out Mac users whose Flip4Mac support only extends as high as WMV 9. However, all of the "archives" and "free" material seems to be encoded with WMV 9 and is still accessible.
    That's where Apple needs to be on the ball and if there is an easy solution, make sure that the folks at Wimbledon.com know about it, and that they make it available to their subscribers.
    What you seem to fail to realize is the fact that WMV DRM and Apple's DRM are mutually incompatible and in direct competition with one another other. Further, you seem to think it is Apple's responsibility to initiate and organize "a commission on standards compliance." I hate to break the news, but as already been pointed out above, Apple compression formats, in almost every case, adhere to open standards already agreed upon by the ISO/IEC Moving Pictures Expert Group. It is the proprietary software developers which add their own enhancements, "improvements", and/or mix/merge various profiles/features/capabilities that you must convince to adhere to the already established standards.
    I can't take electronic books, videos, or music out of my local library because I have a Mac, and they use OverDrive. Can you honestly tell me that's not Apple's problem?
    How is it Apple's problem that the Libraries also opted to use WMV and its DRM over Apple's? Further, if you check out what the Overdrive Console is in actuality, you will find it is simply management software which performs the same functions as Apple's iTunes -- i.e., the prevention of unauthorized burning or distribution of DMR files, the timely forced expiration of "overdue" content, and the selection, access, and management of Library System media. Let's face it, in many ways Microsoft's DRM capabilities are more business oriented where Apple is more home entertainment/personal user oriented. I can't say that I really blame business oriented, "bottom line" sites for selecting one over the other here.
    I don't deny that there is a workaround and that with some knowledge, you can make it work,
    The only real workaround I see here is to have a Mac Intel system with functioning Windows XP, Vista, or similar Windows OS that supports WMV Player v10 or v11. Since I really don't care about viewing any of the sites or content that you seem to feel are so important, this is not a "hot issue" for me one way are the other.

  • How can I deploy EFS using Group Policy and automatically encrypt computers for ALL users who login?

    How can I deploy EFS using Group Policy and Active Directory with a goal to automatically encrypt computers for ALL users who login? (NOT an option for me to use BitLocker)
    I was asked to deploy EFS to encrypt the user my documents folder and profile on all of the users laptops. The laptops are in common areas (board meeting rooms, etc) and security of files is a must.
    I successfully created a recovery certificate in AD. I created an OU and setup an EFS policy and users can now login and select to encrypt their own files. The issue is that management would like to have automaticy Encrypt ALL users my documents AUTOMATICALLY
    when a user login.
    Can this be done?

  • I received a psd file created in CS6 for MAC, I am unable to find the layers when I open it in photoshop in Windows. What can i do to edit the files?

    I received a psd file created in CS6 for MAC, I am unable to find the layers when I open it in photoshop in Windows. What can i do to edit the files? What can be done so that I can either open and see the layers or how can the sender save it in a way that it doesn't "merge" the layers in some way to just one?

    Could try saving as tiff provided layers and transparency are chosen at the time of saving. But it's hard to give a definitive answer as it depends on the final usage. For example PSD's tend to work better in applications like In Design in comparison with tiff.

  • How to create a shortcut for all users in Win 7 and Win 8?

    Hi,
    I'll trying to make a script that will create a shortcut in every user profile account in a computer. I stumble upon the script below from
    http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/Create-shortcut-in-your-11cfd3de/view/Discussions#content.
    Option Explicit
    On Error Resume Next
    Dim objShell
    Dim objDesktop
    Dim  objLink
    Dim strAppPath
    Dim strWorkDir
    Dim strIconPath
    strWorkDir ="C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office15"
    strAppPath = "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office15\ORGCHART.EXE"  'you have to use your URL to Interanet site or path to specific program
    'strIconPath = "\\server\Xyz.ico"     'specify the path to the icon please change to your valid path
    Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
    'objDesktop = objShell.SpecialFolders("Desktop")
    Set objLink = objShell.CreateShortcut("C:\Users\%userprofile%\Desktop\Org_chart_test.lnk") 'change here To your shortcut name
    objLink.Description = "this is a test" 'replaec with your description
    'objLink.IconLocation = strIconPath
    objLink.TargetPath = strAppPath
    objLink.WindowStyle = 3
    objLink.WorkingDirectory = strWorkDir
    objLink.Save
    I did some modifications to cater to my need. Now the question is, how can I make the script create a shortcut for every user profile from the script above?
    Any inputs would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    You could create the shortcut at one machine, then copy it to the target as part of the logon script. Note also that this line contains an error:
    "C:\Users\%userprofile%\Desktop\Org_chart_test.lnk"
    It should read:
    "%userprofile%\Desktop\Org_chart_test.lnk"
