Integrating Mac OS and Virtual Machine 169
Enabling Parental Control in a
Virtual Machine
If you are a user with administrator rights, Parallels Desktop allows you to apply your parental
control settings, configured in Mac OS X for managed accounts, to Windows virtual machines.
Restrictions for virtual machines include launching specific applications and viewing specific
websites.
To apply parental control settings to your Windows virtual machines, do the following:
1 Install Parallels Tools (p. 74) in the virtual machines.
2 Add Parallels Desktop to t
he list of allowed applications for the users to whom you apply
parental control.
After that, when such a user starts a Windows virtual machine, the parental control settings
configured for this user will take effect in the guest operating system. This means the user
will not be able to launch the restricted guest OS applications and view the restricted
websites.
