I would like to submit a RFP for Group Policy Implementation on Linux desktops.

Primarily focusing on KDE/GNOME/Enlightenment integration.

It would encompass a lot of the work done with Samba I think, but extend policy and record management of the LDAP and File access portions with that of ibus.

The primary idea though, would be to use ibus as a communications link to records that define what and what is not desirable to the desktop environment, including storing and modifying paths in start menus, using ibus to send messages to modules to update policy or install software on the local workstation.

Unless I am mistaken, this hasn't been done or discussed yet on Linux?

Hey all-

So linux machines in my domain, served by a Samba4 PDC, show up in the Administrative Tools. I was testing GP to see if it would apply to linux machines -- a basic one, just trying to deny a user from logging in. It does nothing; though from samba-tool, I can verify this policy is linked to the machine. Is it just that GP is designed for Windows machines such that they will have no effect on linux machines?
Yes.
