Sorry it has taken me a while to get round to testing this. Well it does not work. In terminal, the command above gives a lot of text feedback, referring to a configuration server. Not sure what it is trying to do, but what I am trying to achieve is to get the "Register" to appear on the XO home page when you hover over the middle, under "Shutdown" and "My settings"; i.e. to have the Register option available again in the shutdown dropdown menu so that I can register the XO on another XS. We have to do this quite often, for instance right now we have 25 teachers from 3 schools with OLPC projects visiting one school for training. They all need to access the XS server at that school, using their own laptops. Hence we need to deregister them. I am not sure if this question is for the Sugar dev or server dev list, but is certainly server related. Any help appreciated! We are stuck at the moment. We are otherwise stuck; we upgrade them XOs to 10.1.2 and now don't have access to the server without a lot of time consuming work. (it is a pity as the rm /home/olpc/.sugar/default/config method was well understood here) >There's an alternate method using the gconftool-2 program that is somewhat more complex. gconftool-2 --set --type=string \ /desktop/sugar/backup_url \ '' And finally a brute force method "rm -rf .gconf" but this destroys other settings, most of which may not be important.
