I know this is old, but I don't see any responses to your question
(here, in my mail client), so I recommend you go ask this in the GNOME
forums, since GNOME is where all the things you've mentioned take place.
Also, check out the GNOME Admin documentation. I'm sure all of this is
documented, it's just a matter of finding it.

As for a bash script, not to insult you, but are you familiar with the
skel folder that Linux uses for a default for all new users (at the time
the accounts are created)?
Also, pose your question in the appropriate forum on: linuxquestions.org
You can't be the first admin to ever want to do this. Someone out there
has surely already done what you're trying to do.
Good luck!

I'm working on binding Ubuntu machines to a Active Directory domain.
I want to have a default layout that a new user will see, the first
time they log in. Example: Hide Evolution Mail Client and other
applications in the menu, have a certain scenery picture in the
background, have the theme be different than "Human", etc...
Some people have told me that you should be able to complete this with
a bash script. But my unanswered questions have always been; "Well,
how do I do that?" "Where does ubuntu or other flavors run their
script when a new user is created?" Due to non-interest no one (friend
wise) really wants to help me research this...
and yes.. I have Googled this. I have not found any answers that
particularly answer this question. If I can just be pointed in the
right direction, I can take care of the rest.
Thanks
