Hi Leon,
I've done it on ltsp5 as described below. It's been a while since I've
set it up on a fresh install, though, so please feel free to correct me
if anything has changed:
Set up your user account as desired. Create a copy of their /home
directory in /var/userbackups.
Create a startup script like so:
/etc/X11/Xsession.d/01custom_refresh-user:
case "$USER" in
root|nimda|staff1|staff2)
echo "do nothing!"
;;
*)
/usr/bin/rsync -az --delete --exclude ".Xauthority"
/var/userbackups/$USER/
/home/$USER
;;
esac
Note that I had to exclude .Xauthority, since when it's obliterated by
the rsync it messes up the current session.
HTH!
Cheers,
Cindy
