I prepared my "golden master" G5 mac with 10.4.11 and all

from my Firewire HD to several other G5 with Netrestore 3.3.6.
This worked well except Software Update: This function is dead
on the restored target macs. Clicking on the button under the
Apple Menu does nothing, using this function within System
Preferences launches a search for Updates, but gives no results.
Strange. The golden master G5 does not show this behavior.
I checked the console log and found the following error message
on the target mac:
/System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/MacOS/Finder:
CG/CPS: The application 'com.apple.creatorcode.swup' at '/System/
Library/CoreServices/Software Update.app/Contents/MacOS/Software
Update' is not permitted to launch because it is in the list of
disallowed applications.\n
Why is it disallowed?
Where is this list?
How can i correct this?

Are you managing your clients through OD? That is generally the
method used to disallow access to applications, though I can't
say I've ever blocked software update before. If you are
managing them, just verify that user error hasn't caused the issue.
Have you repaired permissions on one of the afflicted machines to
see if it resolves the issue?
Mike
I did repair permissions before and after restoring - everything
is clean, nothing changed.
Yes, we are managing our clients through OD. I logged in as the
local admin to use software update, which should not be affected
by management? Is this correct?
What we did: We created several computerlists and advised the macs
on some of these lists not to show the "Shutdown" button at the
login screen and to eject optical media on logout. Nothing else,
as far as i can see. The problematic macs are all in one of these
list. The master G5 is not a member.
I could not remember if it is possible to block software update
and how, but my mind is a bit vague. Could you point me in the
direction where to search?
