[comp.unix.aux] A/UX Desktop Configuration

J.Pearce@cs.ucl.ac.uk (03/01/91)

I have been using personal System Folders for users so they can create
their own desktop. In addition I have been making backup copies of
.fs* and Desk* so it is possible to restore their desktop in case of
problems, and this seems to work OK.

After customising the layout of / I would now like for other users to be
able to inherit this layout. I have tried copying the .fs* and Desk* files
between System Folders, but the layout for / always seems to result in
the standard layout. Has this got something to do with the lack of write
permission on / ?

Is it possible for users to inherit a desktop layout ?
