I had the same problem if that makes you feel better. I still have not had a
chance to get it working...so if you find the solution please let me know.

Now I just have to figure out how Altiris works into eh whole scheme. I was
hoping to use it to build images a preconfigured Thin Client, to be able to
push it to other thin clients, if needed.
I was hoping I could totally build one out, create a "disk" image and go.
I try to create disk image from the single thin client, it says uploading, but
the thin client just reboots, reboots, reboots.
And I thought this setup would make my life easier.

I have to hold my hands up and admit that I'm not entirely sure. All I
know is we created a local user account (called User) not in the administrators
group and when that user logs in to kiosk mode (using autologon) the buttons
along the bottom of the connection manager window have vanished. I don't
remember doing anything special to set it up that way, it just happened. When
logged in as Administrator, all the buttons are present and correct.
I've just created a test user on a nearby terminal. When the username
is flagged as an administrator, the connection manager options are there. When
the administrator tickbox (connection
manager>Advanced>Security>Users>username>modify>permissions) is unticked, the
connection manager is locked down.

How did you force the cut down connection manager for users and
not for admins?
This is where it becomes confusing so far. Seems if I set
kiosk, everyone (including admin) gets kiosk, I hide connection center, it is
gone for everyone.
I want to run it locked down, but need some accessibility for
the admins, of course.
I have altiris, man, that is no picnic to install. I need to
find a SQL server I can install it on.

We're just starting to roll out a couple of hundred T5500s. We
have them setup to autologin as a restricted user, with the option of pressing
ESC to login as the local administrator during the 5 second autologin
countdown. Standard users get the terminal in kiosk mode with only the cut-down
connection manager and a single autostart ICA connection. Administrators get
the full connection manager ,including options to reenable the desktop.
Assuming you've deployed Altiris (the client licenses come with
the terminals so it's a good move), you can reimage, remotely control
(including logging users off and logging on as the administrator), reboot etc
from your desktop.
