Re: [K12OSN] ltsp 6 and kde kiosktool

["Nadav Kavalerchik" <nadavkav gmail com>]

i don't think that you are using it correctly.

i never had to do all this extra scripting as you did to make it work.

we just use kde on the user's desktop. every computer is auto logged in 
with different user name pc1..pc50. i've set a group [students] to include all
those users. inside kiosktool i assign a profile to students. that's it.
when ever i logged into a user's Desktop i get the profile already assign to it.

all those extra scripting you did seams to work on the local apps 
of the terminal, if you have any. as far as i can tell.

hope, this helps and that i understood you correctly ;-)

Trying to lock down some settings for users with the kiosktool from kde.

For those who are unfamiliar with kiosktool, it adds paths to the
hierarchy for kde settings.

It doesn't work out of the box on ltsp-6 I am trying to get it to work.

I created a symbolic link from ltsp's /etc/kde-profile directory to the
terminal distribution etc directory...

ln -s /etc/kde-profile /opt/ltsp/ppc/etc
ln -s /etc/kde-profile /opt/ltsp/i386/etc

then I added the following to /etc/profile.d/kde.sh

[ -z "$KDEDIRS" ] && KDEDIRS="/etc/kde-profile/default:/etc/kde-profile"
export KDEDIRS

I can see that the KDEDIRS variable is captured by a new login and that
the user is affected but it still doesn't work.

Any suggestions?
