✨ remote-logon-config-agent(1) ✨

okay bestie, buckle up, because this is a one-page wonder from the Arctica Greeter manual set πŸ’–


πŸ’« NAME πŸ’«

remote-logon-config-agent β€” the tiny little queen who goes and fetches your JSON-based remote logon info πŸŽ€


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

remote-logon-config-agent [ options ]

literally that's it. no cap. πŸ’…


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so remote-logon-config-agent is a tiny tool (emphasis on tiny, she's compact and she knows it) whose whole entire job is retrieving JSON-based remote logon information from broker servers β€” think stuff like X2Go Session Broker or Arctica Server β€” and then handing all that over to the DBus service remote-logon-service. she's the middle girl, the connector, the one who makes the intros happen 🫢

and here's the thing: remote-logon-config-agent and remote-logon-service are both components of Arctica Greeter, and together they're out here facilitating user logins into sessions running on remote machines. team effort, iconic behaviour, no notes πŸ‘‘


πŸ“ a lil example πŸ“

here's a short example for retrieving session information from the X2Go Session Broker (and make sure the broker has UCCS frontend support enabled β€” do not skip that part, she said what she said):

$ SERVER_ROOT=http://x2gobroker.localdomain:8080/uccs/inifile/
$ export SERVER_ROOT
$ echo <mypassword> | thin-client-config-agent <myuserid>

see? setup the SERVER_ROOT, export it so it actually sticks around, then pipe your password into thin-client-config-agent with your userid. chef's kiss 😭✨
