Pessulus combined with Sabayon (for Gnome) will be very handy for these two items. You can create fairly complicated lockdown policies, and then assign students to different groups for their permissions levels. I've only dabbled with the tools briefly, but it's fairly obvious that they're designed for exactly this sort of thing, so you should be able to figure it out pretty easily I would guess. -- Tony Yarusso http://tonyyarusso.com/
