I am trying to follow the gnome sysadmin guide to apply default
configurations for ldap users. I'm using gnome 3.8 on rhel 7.1 but am not
able to get the configuration/extensions installed.

I copied all the extensions I want to use in
/usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions and set permissions to root:root 755 so
all users should have access to use them.

I then added a file in /etc/dconf/db/local.d/ with the following content

[org/gnome/shell]
enabled-extensions=['
alternative-...@gnome-shell-extensions.gcampax.github.com','
systemmoni...@gnome-shell-extensions.gcampax.github.com','
apps-m...@gnome-shell-extensions.gcampax.github.com','
places-m...@gnome-shell-extensions.gcampax.github.com','
panel_favori...@rmy.pobox.com']

favorite-apps=['google-chrome.desktop', 'firefox.desktop',
'nautilus.desktop', 'gnome-terminal.desktop',
'gnome-control-center.desktop', 'empathy.desktop']

finally I modified /etc/dconf/profile/user with this (because user home is
on nfs)
service-db:keyfile/user
user-db:user
system-db:local
system-db:site
system-db:distro

and ran dconf update

However when I log into the system as a new users (no existing ~/.local/)
the settings are not applied and the extensions do not appear to be
available in tweak-tool. If I read back the value of enabled-extensions I
get an error that the ~/.cache/dconf-service/keyfile/user does not exist
and the default value is read instead which appears to be the distro
default value and not the default I created.

Can someone point me to the correct documentation to get this working?

Thank you
