I'm somewhat new to Linux too, but I have a thin client set up at my school running edubuntu. I'm wondering if having everyone use the same login is a good idea. It seems like things would get rather squirrelly after a while. If they have network folders, do they also have network logins? Our students have accounts via Active Directory and we were able to get those logins to work in the lab. Perhaps a similar solution would work for you too. You could also set up accounts for each student. A simple script could be used to make accounts like user001, user002 and so on. Not the best solution but maybe better than everyone using the same login. I actually have a script someone wrote for me for this exact purpose. I'm pretty sure he wouldn't mind me sharing it. -jim -- Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.
