MAC PPC Server

[Sasha McLaughlin]

Howdy all.
New to the list...I'm trying the Mac Beta.  If anyone else is using it,
please let me know if there is a way to prevent users from closing it OR
is there a way to make it run in the background so it's (almost)
undectable.  We want to implement this, so any help would be a life saver.
