About

Assimilator is designed for Macintosh lab situations where you want to make all the harddisk's in a lab look almost identical. When the Assimilator program is run on a lab Macintosh it will mount an AppleShare file server and then make the harddisk look more or less exactly like a pre-specified source folder on the server. It does this by throwing away (into the Trash) any files or folders that don't belong or are different and downloading any missing files. Icon positions, folder views, finder flags and so forth are all corrected on the client Macintosh to match the source folder. Although it is designed for student lab situations, it might also be useful in other circumstances, such as for setting up newly purchased Macs or in testing or demo labs. Changes since 1.1 include: * Open Transport IP address, and PCI ethernet address compatibility. * You can set a folder to be downloaded only if the destination folder is missing. * Interoperability with MacPrefect and MacAdministrator. * Various bug fixes and enhancements. Assimilator requires System 7 and a harddisk and is $10 shareware. Version 1.1 is a free upgrade to registered users who registered after 1 Jan 1996. Users who registered prior to 1996 can upgrade and receive a 50% discount. Enjoy, Peter.
