| 15:28 | <joshu> hi anyone who can help with getting lightdm to pass username and password using pam_exec
| |
| 15:37 | <Hyperbyte> joshu, you realize itÅ's saturday, right? You should be out there, painting the town purple!
| |
| 15:38 | <joshu> Hyperbyte lol I wish I could, but I'm on a tight deadline to have this working so I have no choice but to slave in front of the computer and try tog et somewhere by trial and error :(
| |
| 15:38 | I haven't done this stuff before some I'm flying blind
| |
| 15:39 | <Hyperbyte> Well, I can't help you though... I have no clue what pam_exec is, nor do I know anything about the inner workings of lightdm.
| |
| 15:40 | Maybe it would help if you elaborated a bit, on what you're trying to accomplish and how it relates to LTSP
| |
| 15:41 | <joshu> I found this on github https://github.com/opinsys/ltsp-lightdm/blob/master/hack/etc/pam.d/lightdm
| |
| 15:42 | I'm trying to get something similar working but with xfreerdp and as I was LTSP specific I thought I'd ask her
| |
| 15:43 | <Hyperbyte> I have no idea what that file does.
| |
| 15:43 | But I guess, youÅ're trying to process an xfreerdp login via lightdm, correct?
| |
| 15:43 | <joshu> Hyperbyte exactly
| |
| 15:44 | <Hyperbyte> Yey!
| |
| 15:45 | Now the bigger question. Why aren't you just displaying a login prompt on the remote machine, inside the rdp session?
| |
| 15:46 | <joshu> Not sure I follow. You mean connect via RDP first and then display the Windows login prompt?
| |
| 15:46 | <Hyperbyte> Yeah. Doesn't Windows do that by default?
| |
| 15:47 | <joshu> yes it does but I'm trying to simplify life for my users so that they login once only
| |
| 15:47 | <Hyperbyte> Ah... they first log in to Linux and then start RDP session alongside their Linux desktop?
| |
| 15:47 | <joshu> yes
| |
| 15:51 | <Hyperbyte> Well, it all sounds like something really useful
| |
| 15:51 | Unfortunately I have no idea how to accomplish it.
| |
| 15:52 | <joshu> no worries..so why aren't you out enjoying yourself :P
| |
| 15:52 | <Hyperbyte> I'm presenting a radio show right now. :)
| |
| 15:53 | Which, to me, means I'm enjoying myself. ;-) Just inside.
| |
| 15:53 | <joshu> hehe radio show really
| |
| 15:57 | <Hyperbyte> :)
| |
| 16:31 | <joshu> Hyperbyte you still here?
| |
| 16:31 | alkisg has joined IRC (alkisg!~alkisg@ubuntu/member/alkisg) | |
| 16:31 | <joshu> can you please tell me what does the content of /usr/share/ltsp/ltsp-session look like I can't find an example online
| |
| 16:37 | <alkisg> joshu: you need to do that with lightdm, or LDM (=ltsp specific) will also do?
| |
| 16:37 | Because ltsp doesn't work with lightdm by default...
| |
| 16:37 | <joshu> hi alkisg lightdm if possible
| |
| 16:37 | I'm getting closer but not there yet
| |
| 16:38 | <alkisg> Then the issue isn't really related to LTSP, maybe you should ask in #ubuntu instead
| |
| 16:38 | <joshu> I can get the username and password echoed to a textile, but now I need to figure out how to start the session from pam
| |
| 16:39 | <alkisg> vmlintu or asmok here have implemented lightdm + ltsp integration, if you see them around you could ask them
| |
| 16:39 | With kerberos single sign on for other services etc
| |
| 16:39 | <joshu> ok thanks alkisg
| |
| 16:40 | alkisg has left IRC (alkisg!~alkisg@ubuntu/member/alkisg, Quit: Leaving.) | |
| 17:30 | <Hyperbyte> joshu, yeah, I'm still here... but like I said, I have no experience with anything you're trying.
