Locking down System ODBC DSNs

Hi All,

Is there a way to keep users from changing the System ODBC Data Source Name definitions? I have a couple apps being hosted on Citrix and they have their own menu options to bring up the ODBC manager application. This seems to let them change system ODBC DSNs freely. This may "FIX" it for what they're trying to accomplish, but this usually breaks it for everyone else. I've tried the normal threats and warnings, but the users just claim innocence, ignorance, or both.

Does anyone have a simple way to lock this down?

Thanks in advance.
