I hope someone is still following this thread...

I've been using this hint to get a small Library computer lab set up with custom Guest accounts. For the most part, the Workgroup Manager makes it really easy. HOWEVER, I'm struggling with how to get apps like Firefox and the M$oft Office suite to work in this way. Firefox, Word, etc. look for specific folders every time they open in the Guest account and (understandably) act like you're opening ‘em for the first time.

In short, there's got to be a way to combine the Workgroup Manager technique with actually editing the "User Template" contents, so that the Firefox ‘Profile' and the ‘Microsoft User Data' folders can be included in the User Template. Not to mention the fonts, etc. that Office wants installed...

Anyone have any suggestions for this??

Thanks!!
John
