Terminal session on Linux?

Question

linux

Hello!
I have Linux Mint installed. There I put free nx (www.nomachine.com). Set up the server, client. And I can easily connect and create terminal sessions (it costs Gnome). I need to configure users in such a way that when they connect, a specific application (say Open Office Word) is turned on, and when the application is closed, the session is terminated. At the same time, there was no access anywhere, there would be no menus, no terminal ... Only work with a specific application (some similarity to citrix thinapp should work). Can you tell me how to do it?

Answer 1

Read about seamless mode for NX client

Answer 2

ACL, all users in a separate group, which prohibit the launch of "everyone except".
To cut out from the gnome all the possibilities to generate new processes is most likely unrealistic.

Answer 3

make a sandbox, put ONLY what is needed for this program to work, and lock the user into it

Answer 4

screen is suitable for console applications

Answer 5

as an option to start x server without DE and WM with auto start of one application. with ltsp this could be done, I think it should work with nx too.
>> block all that is possible
For where it is kiosk mode - dig towards the kiosk admin tool
For the gnome it is Sabayon Profile Manager. Pessulus Lockdown Editor.
with them when I watched them everything was very sad at some point
Sabayon just stopped running. therefore, everything was decided by setting up the gnome configs and changing the rights to the gnome configuration files and some applications.
