I started with Skolelinux, but the LDAP tool for adding users (lwat) wouldn't let me get past the login screen. I found other references to the problem, but no solution, so I just switched to Edubuntu.
The nice thing about lwat (if it had worked) was that it let me create a user as either an Admin, Jr. Admin, Teacher, or Student. That would have been great, and I expected something like that in Edubuntu. However, I don't see anything like that.
Maybe I'm not supposed to do this at the Main server, but that doesn't seem reasonable. Nothing in the docs seemed to cover adding a new user.
Does anyone know the "right and recommended" procedure for adding a new user?
Thanks,
Dan
