OK, so I'm pretty new to Server, and just tinkering around
But I've properly dug myself into a hole and need some help on this one please!
Tinkering with Profile Manager on Lion Server to allow my kids network account access on both my iMac (ML) and my wife's MacBook (Lion) but setting up Parental Controls centrally on the server via Profile Manager
Set the profiles up with time curfews, deny access to Sys Prefs etc, made them 'unremovable' profiles, and saved them to the 'children' group on the server. All OK and rolled out fine.
However, accidentally manually downloaded the 'settings for children' profile to my own local user account (an admin account) on the iMac, and now can't access Sys Prefs to delete it, nor will Sys Prefs let me manually download an updated profile with the restrictions removed.
Cue lots of swearing.
Any advice on how to get myself out of this embarrassing hole much appreciated!
I've configured my wife's network account as an admin account on the iMac, and it's not lumbered with the same 'settings for children' profile, so if there's a way of using that account to remove the profile from mine, would be the easiest I guess - just don't know how to do it...!
Thanks
