I try to explain with my poor english...
My situation : I am a french teatcher in a secondary school and i am the
administrator of all the computers of the school
Reaparing, installing managing all of the 80
machines in the classrooms.
About Ubuntu : I use Ubuntu from the beginning at home. I am constant
user of it . I try to change for better some proceedings and build
programs for school. I haven't finish because I have lots of ideas...
Last year I install on all of computers in my school : Ubuntu 9,04 as
you can see on the picture of a classroom join in this mail.
At this time i ask students to get an USB Key to save their works and
use only the guest session. (Only for protection of the system)
To do that, I use an addon menu and a script witch permit to every one
to start the machine on the guest session at the logon menu of Ubuntu (
I explain to do it for others teatchers on my web site :
http://mproduction.nuxit.net.). I keep the admin count to install
softwares and makes upgrades (only for me)
I don' want that eache student log on Ubuntu with a standard user,
password on spécific name or count , ONLY as GUEST
For a school it is very usefull.
With the new version of Ubuntu 9,10, the GDM change... and my script
doesn't work...
My question is.... COULD YOU HELP ME or explaine to me how I can have
in the logon menu a possibility to use ubuntu 9,10 à the logon menu as
a guest so that i can upgrade and keep my methode of protection of the
system as i have done in Ubuntu 8,04. I havent found a solution today...
i can't upgrade form 9,04 to 9,10.
I would be very glad if an engineer from Ubuntu on a developper show me
how to transforme my script or show me a new proceeding to start as
GUEST in Ubuntu 9,10...
Please , i believe in you, in Ubuntu, Help me, I wait for your answer.
Long life to Canonical and Ubuntu.
Best regards,
MARLIN Bertrand
