Re: SLAC: locking down konsole

Hi Jasper,
 
Thanks,  the kdeglobals already had the kicker_rmb set to false...
 
I noticed that if you start up an ssh session -via icon- to start an application on another server and need to type a password that the shell that is brought up has no menu bar, but it doesn't stop the user from right-clicking on the konsole and either adding the menubar or starting another konsole.  Thus gaining access to the server.
 
I relieved this issue by creating ssh keys without a password so the konsole does not need to be brought up at all.
 
It would be nice to be able to bring up a konsole without the menubar and the right-click menu to lock down a konsole if needed.

Hi,

It can be locked down, but to my knowledge oly 80 precent of the settings can be set with the kiosktool.
In our environment (ca 7 NX terminal server with KDE desktops) we have edited /etc/kde-profile/profilename/share/config/kdeglobals to make it work.

...
[KDE Action Restrictions][$i]
...
#disables right click menu on desktop and taskbar
action/kicker_rmb=false          
action/kicker_rmb=false
...
#disables console and root access
action/open_terminal=false
shell_access=false

Hopes this helps,

	I'm not sure if that can be locked down.
	
	Perhaps the konsole maintainer (CC-ed) knows?
