Customising OS X 10.5 Guest account

without comments

Recently, I needed to tweak the guest user on my Mum’s laptop so that visitors weren’t sharing the account that they use for email and the like. Unfortunately the Guest account that comes with OS X 10.5 is not ideally configured so I needed a way to customise it to make it more friendly for guests. There is a ‘Simple Finder’ option, but it was a bit too simplistic for my needs. Anyway, I found a nice little writeup that shows how to tweak the Guest account’s configuration to make it a bit more guest friendly.
