Yep. I have a simple desktop setup for our students. I think that only the
folders .config and .local are related to xfce4, and maybe .dmrc
if gdm is used.
It is very easy to regenerate the students' homes:
#!/bin/sh
cd /home || exit 1
for i in student*; do
echo $i
rm -rf $i && mkdir $i && cd $i && tar xfz ../sample_home.tgz
# every student is in the lab group
cd /home && chown -R $i.lab $i
# to prevent the accidental removal of .ssh and authorized_keys in it
# maybe .ssh should contain a known_hosts writeable by the student user
chown 0 $i/.ssh $i/.ssh/authorized_keys
done
