[K12OSN] new school year prep

[Huck]

I'll make a more juicy one AFTER school starts to post there...if you 
can edit your wiki later that's great =)
you can post this one too if you like!

limiting space... 'quota'....limiting applications use 'chown' (man 
chown) for more details..
IceWM...for default session....I posted that last month or this month as 
well from someone elses site I found...
shared folders...you do with 'groups' as well....and 'chown'...(this is 
in the archives as well somewhere)

If I had more time I'd go into more depth...but school starts for me on 
Monday ...
and I still don't have my labs up....nor a file from admin with student 
names =)

*sweat'n bullets*
