Is there a way to create a login banner that a user has to achnowledge before the system boots into Xorg?
I have several machines I want to use as regular workstations, but the company rule is that a banner has to be display which the user acknowledges before logging in that the system may be monitored.
Ideally, when KDE 3.4 starts up, a screen will pop up displaying the company monitoring policy....the user will have to acknowledge this by clicking on "yes" to continue the login process.
How would I go about doing this?
Basically yes, but this isn't a programing tutorial.
Before the login dialog comes up, KDM runs a script:
$KDEDIR/share/config/kdm/Xsetup
Or you might have to set something in: kdmrc for it to run. So, you can add what you need to this script, it will do what you want.
