Re: Gnome-Panel Customization

[Paulo César Silva <Pauloc Silva Sun COM>]

Hello Brian,

Thank you for your quick answer!

I mean lock all items except window-list, (Can't add any applet to the 
gnome-panel).

I am using the Suse 9 SP3.
I need to disable/lock some features of Suse Gnome. Among several 
things, we want to lock user's access to the terminal. We tried the 
GConf Command Line Tool, and put this command:

"gconftool-2 --direct --config-source 
xml:readwrite:/etc/opt/gnome/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/ --type bool --set 
/apps/panel/global/locked_down true" --> This will Disable Panel 
Configuration

"gconftool-2 --direct --config-source 
xml:readwrite:/etc/opt/gnome/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/ --type bool --set 
/desktop/gnome/lockdown/disable_command_line true" --> This will Disable 
Command Line Operations

The issue here is that we done this, and it was suppose to disable/lock 
this features, but didin't!!

What do you think Brian?

Best Regards,
Paulo César Silva
