I install Webmin on all of my servers and use the Webmin User and Group management. Webmin gives you the ability to do batch uploads, modifications, or deletions from a text file. This should do everything you need with many users. > 2. Group management > We need three classes of users: pupils, teachers and admins.

Check into Sabayon. I have not had as much time as I would like to play with this but I believe it will handle everything you need. > 3.

I would like to see the printer list generated by Mac Address of the client. Then I can create groups of mac addresses assigned to each lab and show only printers available in the same lab as the respective clients. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by the Cotter Technology Department, and is believed to be clean. -- edubuntu-users mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/edubuntu-users
