Hello, I have two questions, related to the implementation of LTSP as a cybercafé.
First question : I am using a Mepis with KDE and I would like to get rid of the icons (partitions, CD-ROM and floppy) that are automatically displayed on a new user's desktop. After hours of search, I still could not locate which file I should modify and put as such in /etc/skel. The second question is about the local media. It works fine and I would like to put icons on the desktop that are corresponding to the local media (CDROM and Floppy). I use a cybercafé management software (DireqCafé http://www.silentcoder.co.za/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=DireqCafe ) that generates 'temporary' users and tickets with usernames to log one's in. The users are generated using the /etc/skel, but as nobody can guess which ticket (corresponding to a 'temporary' user) will be used on which machine, it is not relevant to generate a desktop icon pointing to : smb://nobody@<192.168.0.2>/drives if the session happens on the machine 192.168.0.10. The customer may be surprised to read the CD of another customer and not his own. So my question is : is there a way to retrieve the name or IP of the thin-client that is being used by the customer ? The icons could then point to a little script that would itself display the content of the relevant local media. Many thanks in advance for your tips and advice, Catherine ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the JBoss Inc.
