Hi everyone,
I'd like to set up XP workstation which would be both
secure and accesible without any restrictions.
Here is how I'd like it to work: I install the operating
system, all needed applications, network
connections, printers, user accounts, etc. Then I save it
into a read-only device, which I can boot
from (just like installation CD, for example). Whenever
disaster strikes (virus or reckless user),
all what is needed is a fresh reboot. The user's work
might be lost (if not backed up on time),
but at least I'll have a clean and configured operating
system (quite substantial time saving).
How can I do that ?
Jurek
