block games and media players in SLED11
i need to block games and media players for a few users on my SLED (Suse Desktop) system.
is it possible to do it? if yes could some one please guide me as to how i proceed with the same?
else if that will not work, is it possible to block games and media players for all users in the system. uninstalling those is one option. but is it possible to block them
thank you

Start with this:
http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/lin...rmissions.html
If you set up certain binaries to belong to certain groups, then give them permissions so that a user has to belong to that group to execute it, you can control who can launch a program and who can't by checking or unchecking what group(s) they belong to in Yast.
e.g. set bin/game1 to 750 root:games (I think that's what it is), then user has to belong to the group games to execute game1, if not, Linux will return a permissions error.
