I'm looking for a way to disable some features in my application if
it's being run by the Leopard Guest account.
I tried using CSIdentityQueryCreateForCurrentUser() as outlined in
the Identity Services Programming Guide to determine the current
account running the app, and when run by an admin account, it
returns the expected identity.
However, when run by Guest, the returned array of entries contains
no objects. Would that be sufficient to reliably establish that the
Guest account is current?
Comparing NSUserName() against @"guest" seems rather more
straightforward, as well as less likely to break if Apple changes
the way guest accounts are implemented.
But will that work in non-english speaking locales?
