[WBEL-users] Logout Icon

Wed, 4 Aug 2004 08:58:51 -0400

OK, I had never seen this tool before.  It looks like it may be very 
useful.  Since he is using VNC to serve the X session, my set up I use for 
my Citrix terminals may not work.
Here are some potentially useful links:

Here's what I used to set up my terminals, but highly customized from 
this:

Haven't followed the entire thread but since you seem to be set on KDE 
perhaps Kiosk would work? Specify per user (or group) down to the menu's 
within an application what's allowed and what not...

I've only played a bit with it but I think it can do almost everything you 

seem to be asking.
