In the Squeeze version of +Debian Edu / Skolelinux soon +to be released, users of the system will get their default browser +start page set from LDAP, allowing the system administrator to point +all users to the school web page by updating one setting in LDAP. In +addition to setting the default start page when a machine boots, users +are shown the same page as a welcome page when they log in for the +first time.

+ +

The LDAP object dc=skole,dc=skolelinux,dc=no have an attribute +labeledURI with "http://www/ LDAP for Debian Edu/Skolelinux" as the +default content. By changing this value to another URL, all users get +to see the page behind this new URL.

+ +

An easy way to update it is by using the ldapvi tool. It can be +called as "ldapvi -ZD '(cn=admin)'' to update LDAP with the +new setting.

+ +

We have written the code to adjust the default start page and show +the welcome page, and I wonder if there is an easier way to do this +from within Iceweasel instead.
