Sun Desktop Manager

I am trying to implement this little rascal but to no avail. I want to use a file-based repository. So successful installation, then create repository - no problems. Then I had some problems figuring out how to add users to the Domain tree but that's done too. I did some profile tuning but now when I fire up the SunRay clients they don't recognize the profile settings I'm trying to apply. I actually added root to the list in the SDM but it doesn't use my profile either. Do you have any ideas on how exactly to set up a file-based repository and make it work?

Thank you for you time.

From what I see in the logs the user named kiosk is able to connect to the SDM but can't find the profile. I'm posting the log from /rep/Logs, where /rep is the dir where my repository is. You will see it register kiosk twice since I added it by username and by IP.

Hi,

According to the log files, it would appear your configuration agent on the Sun Ray server is incorrectly configured when it comes to pointing to the location of your file repository. The location of the repository must be provided as a URL, so for instance file:///path/to/rep if the directory is local to the Sun Ray server. I would suggest you run again the apoc-config utility to check that the repository location parameter is correct.

If it still doesn't work, please post the contents of /etc/apoc/policymgr.properties (you can remove the lines containing Password or CREDENTIALS if you've provided any password which you don't wish to show) and we'll try and figure out what the problem could be.

Regards,

Cyrille

Thank you for the replay. I ran the apoc-config again but that didn't help. The repository location is file:///rep. The config looks ok. Almost everything else is with the default values. This is what's in polocymgr.properties:

#Mon Oct 30 14:02:44 EST 2006

HostIdentifierType=IPAddress

ConnectTimeout=1

Password=

AuthType=Anonymous

AuthDn=

PROVIDER_URL=10.2.4.4

If you can come up with something I would be vary grateful. Thank you.

Do you also think that it could be a problem with permissions to the /rep folder? It is owned by noaccess group, and only noaccess has write privileges as it was advised in the manual.

The PROVIDER_URL field in your policymgr.properties is wrong, it should be file:///rep according to your setup, and not the IP address of a machine. In apoc-config, when you get to the page asking about the file repository URL, you would need to input "file:///rep" instead of that IP address.

To answer your other question, the /rep directory has to be owned by noaccess, have write permissions for that user and read and traverse for anyone else (only the management tool writes in that directory, the desktop components only read the data).

I hope this helps, if for some reason apoc-config doesn't properly change the policymgr.properties file, you can also edit it manually (setting PROVIDER_URL=file:///rep) and reload the configuration with /usr/lib/apoc/apocd reload.

Thank you very much. That was my mistake. When I changed the URL it worked right away. You made my day.
