Hello John,

> provide kiosk sessions for all folks using a smart card and
> NSCM sessions for folks that login without using a smart card?

  I am not sure that running kiosk sessions for folks with cards
and desktop sessions for those without cards is generally a good
plan (your Java Web Start may be a good example of the opposite).

  We did use the opposite - sunrays without tokens present a kiosk
session, and those with tokens present whatever config is attached
to the token - a kiosk or a regular (login+desktop) session that
the user can easily hotdesk by walking around with the smartcard.
SRSS 4.x and maybe even 3.x allowed to configure such a mix. Note
that this did need separate tokens - either kiosk OR regular can
be assigned to one. Users that needed two or more options had to
have several cards with stickers to denote the card's role.

  I can't quickly remember the incantations needed in command-line,
but you can take a look at FLButselector project (on SunRay Users
Wiki site), I think I wrote down the how-to as part of the project's
readme. To recap, that project allows to flexibly configure different
kiosk sessions and verify that a regular session's user logged in
with the same username as configured for the token (or a "dtadmin"
regular desktop session can be made that can log-in as anyone,
subject to knowledge of the password by person carrying the card).
