Hi Troy,

Yeah, it's a bit of a 'falling down' as far as I'm concerned, but that's
just the way it is at the moment.

You have to manually created your own application config files in
/etc/opt/SUNWkio/applications

For example, one of mine for Firefox is called "firefox.conf" as had the
following entries: -

------
KIOSK_APP_EXEC=/usr/bin/firefox
KIOSK_APP_PROTOTYPE=
KIOSK_APP_PRE=
KIOSK_APP_POST=
KIOSK_APP_LABEL="Firefox"
KIOSK_APP_ICON=/usr/share/pixmaps/firefox-icon.png
KIOSK_APP_DESCRIPTION="Firefox Web Browser"
------

Regards,
Antony.

Subject: [SunRay-Users] Kiosk Mode Applications

We currently have the Sun Windows connector as the default application
but we are finding that every two minutes when the Windows login times
out the screen flashes. We have written a python application that has
buttons for windows login, and other applications.  When I go to
"Advanced" and "Kiosk Mode" in the web gui, I don't see a "New" button
per the documentation.  It has been a while (SRSS 3.1) since I set up
CAM any help here would be greatly appreciated, as this is now SRSS 4.x
and in production with 250 Thin Clients.

Thanks
-Troy


Here is from Sun's Docs.

procedure icon  To Add an Application

1. Select the Advanced tab.

2. Select the Kiosk Mode tab.

If the currently selected Kiosk session supports the addition of
applications, there is an Applications setting at the bottom of the
page.

3. Click the New button.

a. To use one of the predefined Kiosk application descriptors:

i. Select Predefined Descriptor.

descriptor or a system application.

ii. Enter the path to your custom Kiosk application descriptor or
executable.

If you choose Custom Path, indicate whether the path refers to a custom
Kiosk application descriptor or an executable by choosing either
Descriptor or Executable.

instance from a menu or launcher item.

b. Choose AUTO to make the application start automatically when the
Kiosk session starts.

Kiosk session starts, to allow users to start the application
themselves, and to force the Kiosk session to restart if the application
terminates.
