[K12OSN] ltsp/OO: how to have users save .doc .xls .ppt by default ??

[john]

Thanks Nadav. I am using Ubuntu LTS 6.06 and LTSP 4.2, not K12LTSP. So I
don't have those neat scripts to copy stuff to all users profiles. I think
that they would be fairly easy to port to Ubuntu, but so far, I haven't been
able to find sample of the k12ltsp scripts. I appreciate your help!
