SunRay community:

I just wanted to follow up on this based on some off-mailing-list communications that I had with Craig Bender. In particular, particularly because we really didn't have any registered cards since we have been running in zero administration mode, Craig suggested that the best way to fix my problem of being unable to change to the utpolicy that I wanted would be to run 'utconfig -u' followed by 'utconfig'. I did that and it worked perfectly. In particular, after running 'utconfig' it came up with a default policy of '-a -z both -g'. At that point, I was able to switch to the policy that I had thought that I wanted:

'-a -M -z both -k card -g'

So, using 'utconfig' to reset my policy and start again cleared whatever problem I had created.

Thanks to Craig Bender, Jim Klimov, and the rest of this community for your thoughtful, knowledgeable assistance.

Note: Jim Klimov also asked whether I really wanted zero-admin cards to be our kiosk sessions and then use NSCM for regular logins. In our case, we need to provide SunRay-to-SunRay mobility for both our regular login users as well as for our kiosk users. While I may be wrong, my assumption was that NSCM doesn't work for kiosk users because there's no easy way to detect and move their session. It seemed that for NSCM to work with a kiosk user, they would have to know that they were utku43 (for example) and then know a password ... and, as far as I know, the utku* users don't have passwords.

If this doesn't work well, I realize that I can register some of our smartcards as kiosk smart cards and then the remaining cards would default to zero-admin regular cards.

Probably in the next round I'll look more carefully at implementing a more sophisticated approach such as FLBselector or MetaKiosk ... but I need to get a little smarter, I suspect, before I tackle there more sophisticated, but feature rich, approaches.

Thanks again all,

John

Hi John,

What the output of just "utpolicy" with no options?

Is this a new server, or an upgrade of SRSS? What version is this exactly?

What happens with "-a -M -z both -k card -g"
