Re: xmlrpc
Mani,there is documentation for the XML RPC located here:http://people.apache.org/~jfthomps/xmlrpcdocs/xmlrpcWrappers_8php.htmlI have been using the remote API for some time now, and it works very well. To make things easier for me, I wrote a php class that encapsulates some of these functions (see attached). This class doesn't implement any of the group management features, but they would be easy to add.You can then use the class like this (if, for instance, you wanted to list the reservations for a particular user):$vcl = new VCL($userid, $password);if ($reservations = $vcl-getReservations()){ foreach ($reservations as $r){ print "p"; print "b{$r['imagename']}/b "; if ($status = $vcl-getRequestStatus($r['requestid'])){ switch ($status['status']){... } } print "/p"; }}The authentication piece is handed off to the appropriate affiliation function in the VCL code, so if you are using LDAP, the user's password would be verified in that way. Since we use Shibboleth with our VCL installation, the web application (neither the VCL nor any remote webapp) will know anything about what constitutes a valid password, so I ended up modifying the 'checkAccess()' function in .ht-inc/utils.php. If this is relevant for your installation, I can explain further how this is done.The remote API allows me, for instance, to embed the VCL inside other web applications (such as our campus learning management system), without requiring students to login to the main VCL site when they want to make and connect to their reservations.Best regards,Aaron?php

Re: Virtualizing the Virtualization Server
Yes, your going to need xCAT. We've have found that ESXi needs to be installed via kickstart type method using xcat. Partimage - which is the tool used underneath xCAT layer doesn't support the ESXi filesystem. xCAT can deploy using either kickstart or partimage method for x86 hardware. We are using xCAT to deploy our bare-metal environments; user created, kickstart based environments, and for our hypervisor environments ESXi, and for the next release kvm. xCAT is a very nice tool when you have more than a couple of blades to install or repurpose for other features supported by VCL. At first I would suggest to get xCAT working at the command line before trying to use xCAT through the VCL interface. VCL xCAT provisioning modules are only making xCAT system calls to install a node. Once xCAT is setup correctly and working, then start using it through the VCL interface. When you get ready we can share our esxi kickstart template to compare, so you can built one for your environment.

I tried implementing this particular solution a while ago but was never able
to get it to work. The basic idea described in the website is that the
target machine needs to encrypt the password and that encrypted string goes
into the RDP file as:
password 51:b:{encrypted password}
For instance, if a suitable encryption program is installed on the VCL
Windows machine, the management node could, in theory, request a hashed copy
of the password before generating the RDP file for the user.
I certainly don't want to dissuade anyone from trying to get this to work as
described in the link above, but given that there is no reference to
'password 51' fields in the current Terminal Services documentation, I am
not entirely sure that the field is still supported:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff393708%28WS.10%29.aspx
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=885187
The closest I have come to an auto-login solution is to use protocol
handlers in the form of a link. Something like this:
a href=rdp://username:password@hostname:port/domain?params.../a
For this to work on a user's computer, the protocol handler must be
registered at the OS level, which introduces an additional level of
complexity. On Mac OS X, this is done automatically when a user installs an
RDP client such as CoRD. On linux, a user will need to execute something
like this to enable the handler:
gconftool-2 -s /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/rdp/command '/usr/bin/rdesktop
%s' --type String
gconftool-2 -s /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/rdp/enabled --type Boolean true
I am not entirely sure about how to get this to work on Windows, though.
First of all, mstsc.exe doesn't seem to accept a username or password
argument from the command line. Nevertheless, if you want the protocol
handler to work on Windows, you'll need to modify the registry in
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\\rdp -- the documentation here will give you a start:

Subject: Re: rdp file auto login
It's been several years since I tried to get this to work. However, unless
things have changed (which I'm guessing they haven't), you can't make it
auto- login. The password is provided in a clear text form in the rdp
file.
Unfortunately, the windows and mac RDC apps won't use the clear text
version.
You can save a password in an encrypted form in an rdp file; however, RDC
uses cryptographic stuff specific to the computer that actually saves the
file, meaning there's no way to generate the encrypted form of the password
unless you are actually on the end user's machine.
If anyone wants to try to investigate this again, I think everyone in the
community would love to see it work. Or, everyone can switch to linux/unix
platforms that can use rdesktop that will happily accept the password at
the command line. :) I have a nice wrapper script for rdesktop that will
take the rdp file and do the auto-login into the remote windows node.

I would suggest running the secrets.php script from the command line using the php command line interpreter: php secrets.php Any problems in it would then be reported. Also, just to be sure, you are talking about secrets.php and not secrets-default.php, right?

Edit your php.ini file to modify this setting. Done my secrets.php file is like this: ?php $vclhost = 'localhost'; # name of mysql server $vcldb = 'vcl'; # name of mysql database $vclusername = 'mani'; # username to access database $vclpassword = 'mani'; # password to access database $mcryptkey = 'password'; # random password - won't ever have to type it so make it long $mcryptiv = '12345678'; // must be 8 hex chars $pemkey = 'password'; # random passphrase - same as given to genkeys.sh - should be long ? can you guide me, what should i do to fix this file?
