I would like the kiosk machines to be the same as the others. In this way they are backupped too. And when a machine is defect or in use by somebody, a user can use a kiosk machine as user machine (logout and login with username/paswoord). > Automatic login will inherently only have access to local resources; if > access to remote resources is needed, the machine itself will need to be > given some form of credentials and a way to use them in the login path; > the details of those will depend on the details of your use case.
