Re: Storing licence info (other than NSUserDefaults)



The OP is asking how to store some data (preference information) in
such as way as to not require every machine and very user on that
machine to store that data separately, since it is data that is across
users/machines.

There are several different mechanisms to share app data across users
and there does not seem to be a recipe as to the preferred method.
Given that OS X is truly multi-user. I know that this shared resources
issue is one that many schools come across.

I think the fact that the data happens to be a license leads for a
quick redirect, but I think that is incorrect. It's already clear how
he is storing the license (in NSUserDefaults), he's asking how can I
best share that across machines/users.
