SunRay community:

We have happily run a zero-administration smart card policy and NCSM on about 30 Sunrays on a Solaris (10u6, I think) system running SRSS 4.2 (I think) for a long time.

We now have a reason to begin to explore the use of kiosk mode. Because I want to disrupt existing use minimally, I thought that I would start by trying to set up one smart card to that it would be tied to a kiosk-mode session and then locally configure our kiosk session with the handful of applications that we want to be available in kiosk mode which will likely include a custom Java Web Start app (that has it's own authentication), access to the firefox browser, and maybe access to ssh.

Thus far, I've run utpolicy -k to create a collection of utku* kiosk-mode users.

I've used a card reader to find the token ID of the smart card that I'd like to assign to kiosk mode.

I then realized that I first need to register this smart card and then likely use utkioskoverride to assign that smart card token to kiosk session. Since we've always run zero-administration, I've never actually registered a smart card in the 13 years that we've been running Sunrays.

What I can't seem to find is proper syntax of the utuser command that would register that smart card appropriately for kiosk use.

Is this a command-line usage that would work to tie a particular smart card token to one of the utku* users?

utuser -a "<tokenID>,,,utku23,"

Am I also correct that in general I'd want to tie each smart card token to a different utku* user to avoid kiosk-mode session collisions/confusion?

Or am I hopelessly confused by this kiosk-mode stuff and how to use the utku* users?

Thanks for your consideration,

John
