This is now working in squeeze-test, and the localadmin user is not
created any more. Give it a go. The first user even got Kerberos
credentials and in time we can use it to log into Cups, GOsa,
slbackup-php, Nagios and any other web based service we provide. :)
The initial user is a member of the teachers group, making our KDE
menu overrides show up too. :)
Perhaps we should use our menu overrides to provide a 'change
password' menu option? Would be easier to implement than a icon on
the desktop.
