Hi all,=20

We use SuSE 10.x with KDE3 in our 1500 retail locations for POS machines =
and we are working to upgrade them to SuSE11.x with KDE4.  With the =
current boxes, we use kiosktool to lock down the environments.=20

KDE4 has kiosktool but it is not as functional as it was in KDE3.  So we =
are experimenting with manually duplicating the functionality.  I have =
discovered that the kdeglobal file exists in both versions' profile paths =
but evidently the keyword structure has changed as well because "shell_acce=
ss=3Dfalse" (for one example) which prevents starting a shell in KDE3 does =
not prevent it in KDE4.=20

According to the documentation on KDE.ORG, there was evidently a file =
named README.kiosk that for KDE3 that listed all 120 different configurable=
 variables.  Does an equivalent file exist for KDE4?  =20
