• Resetting the user profile - "In windows I just delete the profile and move on."
  • ORBit problems with tcp/ip. GConf with multiple logins.
  • Can we move our configuration files to one common directory? (.gconf, .local, etc)
  • NFS home directories, but the user is using different distributions from different places = BOOM!
  • Failure to start?
  • You can't move your desktop directory. Be able to move them around, but still have the applications know where the stuff is.
  • DEVELOPER DOCUMENTATION (ggrrrrr!!!)
  • 'how to use gconf' documentation? -> sabayon helps

  • administrator guide -> not complete, covers old material

  • gconf-ldap? Something like profile management.
  • evo-ldap
  • Lack of GUI for lockdown. (Part of sabayon?) vuntz is working on pessulus: http://cvs.gnome.org/viewcvs/pessulus/

  • Menu editor for sysadmins http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-4-Manual/desktop-guide/

  • Unixy stuff - /etc/motd, talk, console messages.
  • Policy enforcement and management. (Active Directory-like management?)

Tools

  • Sabayon

Solutions

  • Grep the current cvs for stuff using the old gnome-config stuff and fix it.
