Mike; Gnome is not easy to "lock down" - a simpler window manager would be more configurable. I suggest IceWM. It has simple files that can be edited to control the menus. It can also be configured to have buttons on the taskbar to launch apps.
By default, the menu files are in "/usr/share/icewm", and updates should be made to files of the same name, but in the "/etc/icewm" directory. This preserves your changes should you upgrade versions of icewm. I installed the rpm from the following site: ftp://rpmfind.net/linux/sourceforge/icewm/icewm-1.2.13-1.i386.rpm Installation: # rpm -ivh icewm*rpm Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:icewm ########################################### [100%] Config file locations: # ls /usr/share/icewm icons ledclock menu taskbar toolbar keys mailbox preferences themes winoptions You can go with the default theme, or choose from the 243 other themes availible from: http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/925/?topic_id=925 Hope this helps, Tom > From: Mike O'Toole <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: RE: RE: [Ltsp-discuss] LTSP errors > I am running GNOME desktop on the server. > > I cannot find the menu>preference>system file at all. > > Ideally I would like all the LTSP clients to have a blank desktop with only > 1 icon for our specific app. I know that I can remove the start menu and all > other icons from the panel, but then how do get the users to log out? > > If I put a shortcut to the log out button in the panel, they still get the > "Shut down" "Restart" "Log out" options...I only want them to have the "Log > out" option. > > Any idea's? -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Thomas L.
