I have a 4k file (Sibelius preference file) that I need to send out to multiple home folders (~/Library/Preferences). I tried moving it to the local machines /Library/Preferences folder with no luck.. ( have a call into them to see why this is).

So.. how can I copy a 4k file to a few thousand home directories? I have tested both the cp and ditto command with no luck.. (it seems to copy to only one then stop. I did a wildcard at the student number on the copy (/Volumes/XRAID1/2006/*/Library/Preference) and it was of no help.

I am sure I am missing something silly.. I don't see a 'managed preferences' (like we had in MacOS 9/Macintosh Manager) where I can put a pref in one place... All the desktop machines are 10.3.X thru 10.4.X running Workgroup Manger.... servers are 10.4.3

TIA!

Matt
