Apple - Support - Discussions - Parental controls bug with 10.6.4 and Safari 5
When Safari is locked in Parental Controls it only opens approved sites. If a user tries to go to a non-approved site a dialog appears allowing an admin to add the site. If the admin authorizes ongoing use, the site should be added to the Safari bookmarks bar.Might be a new 10.6.4/Safari 5 bug.
That's not working any more. The site is not added. THe Admin has to drag the url to the bookmarks bar and reauthenticate. If the admin does not do this the authorization will not stick.
Anyone else see this?
Also users are able to edit Safari 5 settings even when Parental Controls are on. I need to retest, but I think that's broken too.
Lastly, today is the first time I tried copying parental controls from a remote to a local account. I have a feeling there are bugs here as well. In the app access control I am seeing apps listed as local that I think are only on the remote account.
It's always been easy to find serious Parental Control bugs, but I think some of these are Safari 5 problems. I don't think Apple QAs OSX Parental Controls.
Update: I've submitted a bug report on this.
