Hi all,
I have installed on ubuntu hardy a kde3 desktop and ltsp5 for sharing it
with 10 thin clients.
I use sldap as authentication db.
All works fine.
My users can stay logged in only for 30 minutes.
On server side, with a bash script on that runs who I see when a user
login, then trace the time and after 25 minutes I send a message with
dcop: it says "you have only 5 minutes before forced logout".
After 5 minutes, if the user still logged in, I force logout with dcop.
And now the problem: with who program I can see all users, but I cannot
see the display, because ltsp5 use ssh X forwarding to connect xdmcp. If
I go on thin client, and echo $DISPLAY variable, I see
localhost:display, and not the IP Address (cause ssh).
I like very much ssh forwarding, but I need to know the display if I
want to logout user or send him a message with dcop.
There's a way to do it?
Another question: on thin clients using SSH X forwarding the display
variable is always localhost? because perhaps I can retrieve user home
directory, and get the display number :x from .DCOP__Server file from it.
Or there's a command like who that can give me the display associated
with the user?
And at the end: I see many programs that can permit me to show all
connected thin client desktop (thinclient-manager, ltsp-manager, italc),
which is the best for kde (thinclient-manager ask for me the gnome
packages)...
Thank you very much
Bye
