User & Drives Tab

The User & Drives tab is used to provides the following options:

 

 

User

Create a user account to manage Deep Freeze locally on your Mac. Only the users added below are authorized to make changes locally.

•	Username - enter the user name.

•	Password - enter the password.

•	Add User - click the Add user button after entering the username and password.

•	Allow users to change Local Policy - select this option to allow users to modify the settings locally on the computer. If this option is not selected, users cannot modify settings locally and Deep Freeze Mac will be managed only from Deep Freeze Cloud.

 

If you do not select the option Allow users to change Local Policy, you will not be able to manage Deep Freeze locally on the Mac workstations. In such a scenario, if you lose connectivity to the network or the Internet, you can Freeze or Thaw Mac workstations using the following command line options: DFXPSWD=password deepfreeze -u username -p bootThawed --force DFXPSWD=password deepfreeze -u username -p bootFrozen --force

 

Drives

•	Specify the drives to be Thawed on your Mac. Enter the name of the drive and click Add Drive.
