[FreeNX-kNX] Guest logins?

[Steven Maddox (Cyorxamp)]

Hi Nico,

Thanks for this...

Now just got to solve how people can be logged into running only 
'firefox -no-remote' and not anything else when they connect... also if 
you've got say 20 people all auto-connecting as 'test' user... won't I 
need to put something in place to make sure they all get new 
screens/sessions and not try to resume any existing ones?  (don't want 
other guests seeing what a previous guest did).

Sincerely...

Steven Maddox
