If I wanted to copy out a preference file, for example, to every user’s home folder (one that cannot be managed with W.M.) how would I go about doing that? Is there a quick shareware/freeware app that would make this easier?

I’m thinking specifically of copying out the Microsoft Office preferences folder to every user’s Library/Preferences folder.

Thanks for any assistance you can provide!

They are network home directories.

The best method (of course) would be to have the computer use the local preferences set by the administrator…but OS X and particularly Office doesn’t work that way 🙁

That’s what I want to do, and I don’t know how to do it.

OK, will that set the correct permissions too? How would I set the correct home folder permissions for users ?
