I am trying to change the default web page, so that people using guest-session will open a specific web page instead of the default site.
Also, please note that when I installed Chromium, the Ubuntu default page comes up there too. There must be a global variable somewhere. Does anyone know where this variable is?

I think the default is set in the package itself and can't be easily changed. However, when you create a new user, the files in
/etc/skel
get copied to the new user's home directory. You could create a new user, set it up as you want the default, and copy all that user's dotfiles into/etc/skel
.You mentioned using a guest session, though. I'm not sure if my method will work in guest sessions. Try it and see.
If it doesn't, here's another option: Create a guest user. Then put something like the following in
~/.logout
:This should cause the user to be reset every logout.
