I see now that the LTSP Guest Login is not a way of launching a *buntu limited-privilege "guest session" or of otherwise provisioning a temporary guest account on the fly. Rather it authenticates against the list of existing user accounts. So for my example above, a user named "ltsp101" with password "ltsp101" would need to have been created, and the account is not limited-privilege unless it has been set up that way. The LTSP Guest Login feature is apparently provided simply as a way of allowing guest access on a terminal without having to divulge a set of login credentials. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Android apps run on BlackBerry 10 Introducing the new BlackBerry 10.2.1 Runtime for Android apps.
