Perhaps make them work their projects on some central system (home
desktop) via ssh? You'd be able to verify access via logs. Then you
could get them to set up their own Websites, e-mail servers, etc.

(OT, there's the new RHCE objective related to RPMs, "Build a simple RPM
that packages a single file" -- though it's since been removed from the
US Red Hat site, it would be IMO an interesting addition to the LPIC-2
exam.)
