im looking for a solution to monitor all my vnc developers
17:46
I do use remmina vnc
17:47
but i would like to have a way to monitor or to "see" all the vnc sessions/screens at the same time
17:47
such as epoptes works with thin, i used to use your ltsp solution, but now i work with vnc with some developers
17:50
<alkisg>
bluejaypop: I'm not sure what's "different than when with thin". You can install epoptes-client on your developer's PCs and monitor them
17:50
You can then adjust the thumbnail frequency and size to your liking
17:50
<bluejaypop>
they work with the same server all of them, just with different vnc sessions, like everyone has a linux user.
17:51
<alkisg>
You mean that they don't run a normal session, so epoptes doesn't launch for them?
17:51
This means that you have set up the VNC server incorrectly
17:51
Which vnc server software are you using?
17:53
<bluejaypop>
what i do is the following: in a user session, I start a sesison with: vncserver -localhost no (with a LAN ip only, no WAN) so I can login with a RO user, so I was thinking using epoptes clients inside that vnc session, but i tried and didnt work
17:54
i use tigervncserver
17:54
<alkisg>
Yes, you should be able to run epoptes-client inside that session. If the developer opens a terminal and runs epoptes-client, what happens, does it show any error message?
18:02
<bluejaypop>
i can show it to you if you want
18:03
<alkisg>
You mean, to VNC to me? Sure, x11vnc -connect alkisg.ltsp.org
18:09
<bluejaypop>

18:09
i meant the logs
18:12
<alkisg>
"Epoptes-client connecting to server:789... ...done" means that the connection was successful, so you should be monitoring that developer properly. I don't see any issue
18:17
<bluejaypop>
i think it works now
18:17
:/
18:18
how can I see with read-only permissions ?
18:21
<alkisg>
You mean "view only"? Use the menu, it has "assist" and "monitor"; monitor is view-only
18:22
<bluejaypop>
ok
18:23
now it works as I needed, thank you very much
18:30
<alkisg>
You're welcome
18:46
<bluejaypop>
alkisg, i found the way i was trying to run epoptes-client
18:47
i have the ssh access to all acounts, so i was looking for run something like: sudo -u developer1 epoptes-client &
18:47
first i defined the DISPLAY variable, but didnt work
18:47
i understand that if i run it into the vnc session it works, but not in the ssh session
18:48
<alkisg>
ssh developer1@pc; export $(/usr/share/epoptes-client/get-display); epoptes-client
18:48
<bluejaypop>
let me try
18:49
yes, that was the form, thank you very much
18:49
:)
18:50
i can help later in some dev lines if you want to with your project, i liked it
18:51
<alkisg>
If you have developers that can help with epoptes, sure, that'd be great
18:52
<bluejaypop>
:)
