Feature changed by: T. J. Brumfield (enderandrew) Feature #306282, revision 8 Title: Restricted Guest Account openSUSE-11.2: Evaluation Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Stephan Binner (beineri) Description: openSUSE should support a "Guest" account with a temporary home directory and restricted permissions (via AppArmor, like not being able to start application with console privileges, looking into home directories as "other" user etc.). An authenticated user has to enable/start this user account. This could be either implemented with a by default existing but inactivated user account (like Windows) or temporary created user account via login manager/session switch applet (like Ubuntu, https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/gdm-guest-login). Use Case: Allow to lend your laptop to someone else for quick email check, surfing or playing music at a party. Discussion: #1: Michael Löffler (michl19) (2009-03-25 17:20:47) This sounds to me more like a corner case. And I always like fate request where even the requester doesn't stand really behind the request (desirable) + #2: T. J. Brumfield (enderandrew) (2009-06-13 21:58:26) + I think this has some possibilities for "kiosk" use as well, though I + think a specialized live-CD is still the best way to go for a kiosk. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306282
