Hi all: I have checked the archives and found some messages related to this question but none that gave me a definitive answer.
I am running LM 7.2, KDE 2.0, with msec = 3 (for the time being -- I am thinking of switching to msec = 4 though) and would like my "users" (my children in fact!) to NOT have sensitive system menus available to them, just to be on the safe side [for example, I do not want them to fool around with boot and init stuff and the like]. I tried deleting these menus under their usernames [ K --> Panel menu --> Configure --> Menu editor] and they did indeed vanish from the left side of the editor window, but were still visible as available on the right side of the editor window. I logged out and back in and checked that the "deleted" menus were still listed as available on the right-hand side of the editor window (although they are indeed gone from the K panel). What is the best way to make sure these sensitive menu items are NEVER seen as available? Remove them from the individual .kde/share/applnk directory of each user? Change the permissions of the corresponding files in the /usr/share/applnk directory so regular users do not have access to them? I do not mind working from the shell as opposed to clicking icons (in fact, I usually prefer the shell as it is easier to see the consequences of waht one does), so feel free to make suggestions of any type, clicking or non-clicking! Thanks in advance, Serge Pineault P.S. Incidentally, the guide and installed setup of KDE do not agree on the steps to take to edit the menus (I do not seem to have a K menu installed -- I can only guess that menudrake is a somewhat different, yet similar, beast...). I seem to recall something about K menu and menudrake being at odds with one another. What is this all about (if it is indeed the case...)?
