This project consists of 2 parts, a client and a server, that will allow for the remote control of a Mac network. We are interested in quotes to build the client element of the system.
The client object will be a background program used to control program, printing and Internet access on a iMac G4 running OS X. The object must be able to receive instructions from the server machine that will:
1) Pop up a message.
2) Lock the computer down completely
3) Lock everything but a browser that will only allow access to certain web sites (difined by a list)
4) Enable/Disable access to printers.
The server application will be written using Xcode/Apple script. The client objects must be able to receive instructions from this environment. We are happy to liase with the developer to arrange which method is most suitable for task.
All client server communication will take place over a wireless network.
