Feature changed by: Karl Cheng (qantas94heavy) Feature #316439, revision 4 Title: User Management/Parental Controls - openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed + openSUSE Distribution: New Priority Requester: Important Requested by: John Moore (johnfm3) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: As technology becomes more in family lives, the ability to manage is important. As a parent, what is needed is some way to govern computer usage. Parents are not the only ones who could use this. But would be the primary ones who would appreciate it. Currently KChildLock is the only decent which is a KDE App, the newest Opensuse its written for is 12.2. It allows for one to choose between what times a user can log into KDE, an for how long that user can be logged on. KChildLock has one more really cool feature of governing how long a user uses a paticular app while logged on, but that a bit over kill for what I would like request be added to the Yast User module. It would be really convient to add this to the User yast module. With a longterm plan of administration via setting from LDAP. This way its not a 3rd party app, but part of the OpenSuse distrbution default install for those who want to use it. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: If you google/bing search for Parental Control's, you will find some purchasable pieces of software which you can install on Windows systems. What you will also notice is this is a common issue for parents an some system adadministrators of all OS types. Mac users have this built in thier OS by default. An now 1 Ubuntu version is now available. Many have had to come up with creative solutions to achieve this goal including cron jobs an scripts. This feature would make OpenSuse/Novel Suse more of a family friendly OS which would be recommended to those who want a solid OS with parental control available. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/316439
