OK - if I get you right - editors may work on any machine, may wish to change settings on the machine they are working on, then have MC save the updated settings on the server to be able to use the modified settings on another workstation? This should work as you describe - in the situations I've been in we've used Group settings so that users can't mess up the settings we wanted them to use. The settings are read from the server and however they mess them up, they are not saved and come back as new every time. I'll be in a room with several machines on a network tomorrow so I'll see if I can test Personal settings.
