That's by design, but undocumented/unpolished as yet. The first user to login to moodle gets a special course-creator account and can designate other users to also have the same role. The scenario works as follows: If the XS is taken to a school with _no_ technical expertise, perhaps by a technician that with limited skills, we can establish a simple protocol: give the first XO to the teacher or principal of the school, and go with him/her through registration and first login to moodle. So the first login ot moodle is "magic". And my intention is to extend that role a bit so that it can do anything that might be needed. So we don't really grant the "admin" role to anyone. As a power user, you _can_ login to moodle as with the "admin" account (and use it to screw things completely too!). The password is created at install time, and saved in /etc/moodle > Then, from XOA, I successfully clicked on the link to login to moodle as XOB > and vice versa. Is it intentional to make the moodle login on the "honor > system?" For now yes -- I'm working on 'magic sign on' from Browse.xo to Moodle so the next release of the XO OS 9.1 can do it... cheers, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff _______________________________________________ Server-devel mailing list Server-devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel
