I want to set default Desktop environment (the question is not about gnome-panel, KDE etc.), need to unlock unnecessary icons from launcher and lock needed applications on launcher, set keyboard layout 2 or 3 languages on menu bar. And when I create new user and he/she will log in, the desktop environment will be same that I created.

After creating a user copy .config directory from your home directory to the home directory of a new user.
Enter Files manager with sudo priveligies.
sudo nautilus
Then Go to /home/user1 directory.Press Ctlr+H to see hidden files. There is a .config directory where user settings are stored.Copy it with right click menu.
Then go to /home/user2 directory. Right click and Paste.
Now log out and enter to the new user account.

I have LDAP client installed, and need to customize new users Desktop automatically, not manually (because the users home created after log in). – Hayk Haroyan Apr 08 '15 at 09:00
