I run several labs of Mac computers, and am investigating integrating them with our Active Directory server. One mac (so far) has been configured and what happens is that an "Other" account has been created on the Mac with a username and password box for students to use to log in. Students can do this and authenticate with the Active directory server fine. The problem is that in the past we have had a program called PCounter that runs (it is started at login on our old generic Student login account that all students used to use to login). This program counts the number of pages a student prints so that when a student reaches a certain limit he/she must purchase more print quantity. I need this same program to run for *every* student that could log into the Macs. How can I set up a program to start at login for all the accounts that could login under the Other login box? (I have found no way under Accounts to setup login items for the Other account.) Since each user that logs in gets their own desktop, dock, etc. Is there a way to make this program run for every student without instructing the student *himself* to manually set the program to run after he/she logs in (which I am sure would be self-defeating)?
