Hi,

I have had the same results. I also run SuSE 9.1. I would like to see a 
deeper explanation of what the tool does. I am a n00b and I don't always 
understand half of the things I do. A more detailed description would be 
nice, even a real example would be nice.

Hi,

 

I have installed kiosk-tool on suse9.1, linked a profile to a user group and
customised the profile.  However when I login as one of the users from the
group my desktop has not been locked down, am I missing something here?

 

Thanks

Steve
