Description
we've had a couple instances now of people using NComputing setups and running into problems.

from @jamalex
if you set the Kolibri windows installer to autostart Kolibri at boot, it does so for every account. Every terminal on an n-computing cluster is a new account -- it's all the same computer (one IP -- and same 127.0.0.1), but different home directories depending on who logged in first.
So it should be disabled from autostarting on every account except the main admin account, and then the teacher needs to log in using that account after the computer is turned on to start kolibri up
Installing Kolibri also put the Kolibri launcher icon on the desktop of every student account so we removed those and instead added a URL shortcut icon
We should definitely look at trying to adapt the windows installer to detect and handle n-computing better
