Hi

You did not mention your users or anything about how they use the client
devices .

Autlogin on 100 device sounds like a kiosk environment to me. And
preventing changes sounds like a read only filesystem. There is a screen
script in ltsp package called 'kiosk' that creates a temporary session for
each login but you need to configure it to run  a specific program or task.

And there are propably hundred others  kiosk setups in the internet you can
apply with or without ltsp

"Kiosk" means that clients should have same service and taste every time.
So you create session on the client environment  first as a template and
then you configure it to be used (copied) and mounted on tmpfs and cleanup
it on logout or reboot.

first describe what applications  your clients use?
