Hello, I am helping setup a computer system for Friends of the Earth in Birmingham UK.
I have 3 questions. 1. Similar to what Jonathan D. Proulx asked on Jan 24 this year.... How do you configure a particular machine to auto login without a password? I am hoping to setup a machine in our Vegetarian Cafe for the public to surf on. So I didn't want any password or user login. 2. Related to the question above how do you setup a machine so that only their home directory is accessible and they cant see anything else? Do I need to create a seperate group for the cafe surf box and then chmod the other top directories on the system to not have rwx access privileges rights to this particular group ? 3. Local device access - Some of the PC's in our building are distributed around the place so we could really do with LDA running. Were using the 6.06 Dapper edbubuntu I think because it includes long-term support. I've tried Edgy Eft 6.10 and have got the LDA working easy. However I think our computer guru who's overseeing the system wants 6.06. I have found some info regarding getting this working at http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/LTSP-42-LocalDev However this is specifically for 5.10 breezy badger. I have tried following the instructions but have not had much success. Does anyone know of any instructions for getting LDA to work on 6.06.
