Linux Ubuntu & Raspbian Lockdown

Hello Community!

I have Soti MobiControl, version 15.4.2.1020 in use. I have a requirement to manage and lockdown Raspberry PIs and Ubuntu servers via Soti.
According to the documentation only Ubuntu 16.04 as well as Ubuntu 18.04 are supported. I have set up 2 VMs with 16.04 & 18.04 and cannot confirm that the lockdown works for Linux. According to logs the npm packages are missing as well as electron, but they are not installed by themselves.

On newer Ubuntu servers and on Raspbian 10/11 I have no chance to get the lockdown working.

Has anyone done this before or is there a trick to use the build-in Lockdown from Soti?

I don't want to program my own kiosk browser, because it has to work dynamically for 30 works.

Thanks for your help,

kind regards
Martin
