Jonathan,
You seem to be a candidate for AMGH. This would allow your Sun Ray with
a card to redirect to the VDI server and then return to the OEL server
on pull.
I have your setup in reverse, documented here, though over simplistic.

There are other things you can do, but you start getting away from
supportability. Have a look at this for fun ;)

Hello,
We're currently running both a VDI 3.2 environment (on Solaris x86) for our VDI
clients, and a plain SRSS 5.1 server on OEL 5 for kiosks/Linux desktops.
Currently, both of these systems are separate (different configs served to the
DTUs, etc). Also, we are using the normal GDM login and not kiosk mode on the
OEL 5/kiosk server.
I'm looking at a way to better integrate these systems so that a VDI user can
sit down at one of the plain kiosk terminals, insert their card, and get their
VDI desktop. I've been trying to think of a way to make this happen, but can't
come up with anything I like while keeping things completely separate. OVDC
doesn't seem to install on OEL5, SGD isn't an option since not all VDI users
have access and we use 2 factor auth for it. I also can't figure out a way to
get the normal VDI client (connecting to the existing DB cluster) to run under
Linux (I figured that would be a long shot, but a nice solution if it worked).
Another possible solution would be a kiosk session definition on the VDI side
of things that would connect users to the OEL 5 server (all of the DTUs would
connect only to the VDI environment). The only thing with that option is
connectivity to the kiosk server - VNC, XDMCP, or something else?
Has anyone implemented something similar and could offer some insight on this?
-Jon
