<p>Hi Shima,</p>
<p>Using this method allows someone to start a window manager like Gnome and then do other things.  If the user logging in is 'guest' I need them to be able to run absolutely nothing no matter what they have chosen except for the given command.</p>

<p>I'll try putting your code elsewhere to see if it can work better to get around this.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
