Is WEBMIN in the K12LTSP or do I need to go look for it some place?
I'm not the most savy Linux person so a little bit more detailed
response would help.<br>
Thanks again<br>

<pre wrap="">Webmin is definitely the answer to this.

may end up giving her the ability to create her own username with a
UID of 0, which would give her root.

<pre wrap="">Hi John,
You might try installing WEBMIN and creating a limited administrator
account with user priviledges.....

Hi ,<br>
<br>
As root you should have an icon "install additional software" open it
and launch the webmin install.<br>
