It joins the preceding discussion about education to security : I
think that it is better to make students used to type passwords. You can
for example create a CD image with a password; always the same. Once
students know the pass, you are in exactly the same situation : they can
mess the PC's and the PC's are re-imaged each time. But IMHO in this
case, you educate to security too.
If passwordless account are bad in "real" live, then there are bad
in education live. That seems clear for me, no ?
Have a nice day
