LM_NET: Library Media Networking
I missed the original post on this with my "magic" delete finger; however,
we use to have a problem with unauthorized after hours use (and lost
stored data, had printers damaged and etc), our solution to this was plug
locks. These are pretty inexpensive. They fit over the end of the plug
and need a key to remove the lock. It might be time consuming to do this
every night however.
