I'd like have a seamless login to an OpenSolaris virtual machine through a sunray DTU. I had some success with the kiosk mode launching Xephyr which then connects to OpenSolaris over XDMCP. I have a little Xephyr wrapper script which increments the display number for each new session.

However as far as I understand the kiosk mode has been designed for unauthenticated access and in my case all users need to be authenticated (typical office setup) so I'm not sure if I'm doing the right thing.

That you want 'seamless' login to another machine implies that you don't want to authenticate to your SRSS host first. So using kiosk is fine here - you are unauthenticated on the Sun Ray server host.

Also, my current technique seems a bit hackish. Is there a better, recommended way to do this?


Your technique is fine. Alternatives would be
- If your VM is on VirtualBox, it should be possible to use the Sun Ray Windows Connector Kiosk session to connect to the VM via RDP. I've seen this work with a current version of Sun xVM VirtualBox and the upcoming SRWC 2.1. - If you can get SRSS to run on the VM (not supported with OpenSolaris atm), then you can use AMGH (or a script with utswitch) to connect to the VM.
