In a Microsoft Windows domain there is something called Global Policy, which means on a per user and per machine, I could lock down all sort of settings. eg I could hide control panels, Internet Explorer, ability to get to a command line, various system rights etc by just checking boxes. And it would apply to my selection of users and/or computers in the network.
I am well aware that many of these restriction can be setup in Linux, but there is no central tool (that I am aware of) that I can use to do this. eg define these group of settings, restrictions, application settings and apply them to these Users.
