Bug Description
A user could just pull up a guest session to bypass his/her limit before the time limit is reached. While not being able to save work, they could still hog the computer for hours. I simply added a guest session option to the /etc/security/
To post a comment you must log in.
You can easily purge gdm-guest-session package and get rid of the guest session.
What happens when people have actual real "guest" usernames? I'm not
saying I saw someone actually use it, but it's arguable.
On the other hand, perhaps we could add a "guest" account in the
usernames above, to appear in timekpr-gui. Then let the user decide
whether it's good or not. Yet still, the problem is that "guest" would
be treated as a different user, so the actual user would have their
time + the time allowed for guest. :)
