Hi Thanks for you tips :-) I thing a start working on a script that change the rights for the differnt games so that the users cant start the games. Then a kill all games running.
After that kill all processes for that user (the user will be log out) Then set the user to nologin Here is the problem the user is from a LDAP server dont fick there is no easy way to block this :-) Will search some more forum for any answer // Matte ons 2008-11-19 klockan 22:23 +0200 skrev Mika Pflüger: > Hi, > > > Maybe you could hack > > together a cron script to join/remove the autologin user from a group > > that has access/does not have access to the games from the menu (of > > course if your users are savvy enough they can figure out how to > > launch it anyway, but this might deter the majority of them). > > > > You can also manually modify the menu entries, or simply remove the > > games.
