I want to thank those that replied... > You could also just use fl_teachertool
> google FL_TeacherTool The teacher_tool looks really nice, but when I compiled it on my box (Debian Testing) it compiled correctly, but showed that no users were logged on. I contacted the author of the program, and simply put, it seem as though it is written for RedHat/Fedora/etc and there is some changes that I would have to make for it to work with Debian. Since I really did not understand the changes, nor need all the power of that tool, (I only have 4 seats, +the server) I did not take the time to disect it all. The author also mentioned that people were working on a similar tool for Ubuntu, so he suggested I try that. I tried a package from Ubuntu that looks similar, but since I did not installed LTSP from a .deb the install also crapped out on me. And simialar to before, I did not want to take the time to figure that all out with my 4 seats. More importantly, I did not want to break anything that was already working. (I've been running LTSP for 3+ years now, and it works, did not want the ltsp .deb package to mess that up) > It looks like you need to disable xhost security to make this way > work. I know I did not disable anything by hand... so I am wondering now if Debian "ships" with it disabled. How could I tell? The script does have to be run as root, or at least with 'sudo' so not sure if that address the security or not. Any insight would be appriciated.
