Tips when using Network Security Guard

 1) Use the scheduling option for large checks. 

 2) Avoid checking for file information unless necessary since it is the most time 
      consuming option.                      

 3) Customize the violations you would like to search for in the “Action: 
      Violations to Search  for..." window.

 4) In the File Sharing and Guest reports data can be exported into a word    
      processor using copy/paste . From there, the tab delimiters can be      
     cleaned up and  imported  directly into a database.

 5) Yes, Network Security Guard works over AppleTalk Remote Access!

 6) To send a report via e-mail to multiple people, simply add their addresses
      in the "To" field of the "Configure:Output" window and separate each 
      address with a comma.

 7) Use NSG in conjuntion with the public domain utility Mount Alias to 
      automatically create  aliases to all guest accessible servers on your network. 
      (This is cool!)

 8) Customize the list of files to search for in the “Violations to Search For...” 
      window to include applications specific to your own site.

 9) Search for specific files on the network by erasing all entries in the  
      "Violations to Search For..." window and entering your own.

10) Be general in the "Violations to Search For..." window. e.g. Search for  
       "MacSuperDraw" instead of "MacSuperDraw 4.0".

11) To cancel a search, hold down the command key and type the "." key.

12) Lengthy checks are best performed in multiple chunks rather than one large 
       check.
 
13) Use the “Action: Update Zones” over ARA to update the AppleTalk zone list.
