New description:
Currently there is no way to force a laptop to re-register to a new school
server. This is especially important for all our testing and when we roll
this out to a country they, too, need to test and everyone will make
mistakes and need to re-register at some point.
This trac item is asking for the 'quick and dirty' re-registration which
simply deletes two lines: [Server] and [backup] in the file:
/home/olpc/.sugar/default/config
This can be done in the terminal.
Please see the long term feature request that will recommend doing this
all behind the scenes with some smart scripts, #7764.
