I was finally able to resolve this. I found a flag for Xnest that I missed yesterday:
-once   Terminate server after one session

So here's what my complete call to Xnest looks like:
/usr/openwin/bin/Xnest :$GENERATED_DISPLAY -pn -geometry $GENERATED_GEOMETRY -once -query $HOST

This call is wrapped in a script that generates the indicated values for display and geometry, and this script is called from the utsplash script from the CAM chooser script set.

So while the CAM chooser script is functional, it'd be nice to have something that was a bit more customizable as far as appearance goes. What other solutions are people using that they'd like to share?

Small correction/addition...

The Windows desktop does not return to the chooser until the user clicks on the Cancel button in the Windows login dialog. I'd settle for this on the Linux side, but the Disconnect button on the gdm greeter does not do this as I would expect.

Still looking for a better idea...

Greetings,

I realize this is not necessarily a SunRay question, but I was hoping somebody here has already solved this problem. I'm using a session chooser (combination of the CAM chooser script and the kiosk generic session) to give users the choice between a WTS session (using uttsc) and a Linux desktop session (XDMCP via Xnest). What I'm stuck on is that when the user ends their Linux desktop session, they are returned to the gdm greeter (login screen on the remote Linux server) and not to the chooser dialog. I've been looking for a way to configure the server to break the connection if the session ends but am coming up empty. If anybody else who is already doing this (XDMCP to a remote host) can help me out, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks.
Seth
