> It works as described below. Text below quoted from the Assimilator web

>  
> "Assimilator is designed for Macintosh lab situations where you want to
> make all the harddisk's in a lab look almost identical. When the
> Assimilator program is run on a lab Macintosh it will mount an
> AppleShare file server and then make the harddisk look more or less
> exactly like a pre-specified source folder on the server.  It does this
> by throwing away (into the Trash) any files or folders that don't belong
> or are different and downloading any missing files.  Icon positions,
> folder views, finder flags and so forth are all corrected on the client
> Macintosh to match the source folder. "

> objective?
