about preventing users changing the wallpaper, and stuff. [Simon Wood]
Can't this be done by sym-linking the appropriate parts of '.kde' to a non writable master copy. I though I'd limit my users (my wife) in this fashion but see told me not to....
You could also limit access to the config application. Ah the power of the UID....
Yes, you could do. That would mean that changes wouldn't stick. Although it could get very nasty when you think about all the permissions and ensuring that it will all work in the end ;) So, that's given me a good idea for a nice piece of software to write when I've improved my KDE/Qt skills -- a nice policy editor application to make this kind of thing easy :) -- Cheers, Chris Howells -- chris@chrishowells.co.uk, howells@kde.org Web: http://chrishowells.co.uk, PGP key: http://chrishowells.co.uk/pgp.txt http://www.koffice.org, http://edu.kde.org, http://usability.kde.org
