Hi,
I am very happy of our new Debian-edu computer lab, everything is running
smooth even if the machine are old enough.
I have just some help requests:
1. I need a passwordless guest account on every client which erase all data
on every login or logout (useful for doing national online exams) For the
moment i created a local account with the same name on every client with
adduser *** and then passwd -d ***.
Still to do the erasing part, but for the moment it seems ok. Can this
create problems with debian-edu?
You could use arctica-greeter (a LightDM greeter frontend). It has an
extra pkg called arctica-greeter-guest-session (iirc, please check
with apt-cache search). However, during recent tests on Debian 12 that
feature looked broken. Need to check it.
2. I would like to avoid that (kerberos?) dialog box that ofteh/always asks
for a password after login. It confounds pupils... :-)
Thanks in advance for your advice!
You could remove the package or edit its entry in /etc/xdg/autostart.
E.g. add a line NotShowIn=MATE;
