Hi,

I've searched the list for a way to install the Flash Player for OTC
clients.  I have found some old information, but not enough to get it working.

I understand that I must use Flash Player version 9 and I found this
download page: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/406/kb406791.html#main_LinuxFP9

The download only provides the plugin file libflashplayer.so, not the installer.

At a terminal, I extracted the file and moved it to ~/.mozilla/plugins
(which I had to create first) and now flash works...for this user.

I tried to use the 'custom' folder to install the plugin for all users, but
I was not successful.

Can someone tell me if this won't work, or if it should work can you tell me
what I'm doing wrong?

I tried this from a terminal on the OTC desktop:

sudo mkdir -p 
/opt/openthinclient/server/default/data/nfs/root/custom/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins

sudo mv libflashplayer.so 
/opt/openthinclient/server/default/data/nfs/root/custom/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/

I also tried creating a .tar file containing:

usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so

which was expanded in place when the terminal rebooted.

Thanks much,

G
