Hi Michael,
Decent write up here.
Typically, I just create a new kiosk script called via the generic
session kiosk available on the wiki.

If you are using the canned Sun Ray Windows connector script, you can
duplicate that and put your if/then logic in.

If you have one fog, then it's hard to use things like AMGH to redirect
DTU's to a task specific fog.
However, it's very easy to put an if/then script that looks at any number
of things from the MAC of the DTU, the token of a smart card if used, an
entry in the SR Datastore in the location or other field that you can key
off of to do something different.
Wonderful. Where would that script need to go along the Sun Ray/Kiosk
chain? And does it get that information from the environment or would it
need to query the datastore somehow? Is there a doc that explains the
right way to do this, or should I just go hacking around in Sun Ray's
guts?
Thanks,

Hi List.
Based on my own research I think the answer to my question is going to
be "no", but I wanted to check before I tell that to my boss.
We have a brand new Sun Ray deployment (4.0, planning an upgrade to 4.1
RSN), serving Windows desktops via the Windows connector to several
different public labs and classrooms across our campus. So far so
good.
My team doesn't own DHCP, and can't get the x-window-manager record
added, so we have to rely on the sunray-config-servers DNS entry
pointing to our FOG. Eh, but so far so good.
Now we have a hurry-up request, which won't be the last, to temporarily
re-purpose one of our computer classrooms to display a custom
application for participants in a study. The application is simple, I
think, just a full-screen browser pointed at a particular URL. The hard
part is redirecting one subset of our DTU's to get a different session
type from everybody else. Seems that as long as we have one FOG
covering the whole campus, there's no way to distinguish one list of
DTU's from another; they're all just going to get the same type of
session.
Have I missed something? Is there a way to do what we want given our
present layout?
Thanks,
--Michael
