Excellent! Looks like we can have one more
collaborative effort. I have set up a wiki page
initiating a FOSS based Cyber cafe and added a
temporary structure to it.


Few recommendations on the software for the cafe admin -

If its Gnome then

1. Pessulus -
From its about - enables the system administrator to set mandatory settings in
GConf, which apply to all users, restricting what they can do, which may
be of particular usefulness for kiosks (internet cafes, for example).
Note : This tool has lot of missing features, yet worthwile.

2. Sabayon - www.gnome.org/projects/sabayon
About - This powerful tool allows administrators to create profiles
for groups of users, for example Programmers or Admin Staff and set
certain default and mandatory settings for these groups.

If its KDE then

1. Kiosktool - http://extragear.kde.org/apps/kiosktool/
About : A Point&Click tool for system administrators to enable KDE's
KIOSK features or otherwise preconfigure KDE for groups of users.

I am quite hopeful that this initative will result in important
lessons in large scale workstation management and such.


regards,
C
