To make it simpler for the students and more secure for the school, I created an Application Launcher desktop icon that starts rdesktop and runs just the program (no Windows desktop). For security reasons I have the students enter their username and password to access the Windows server (it's the same as their Linux log in as it's stored in an LDAP directory). When they close the Windows program they are automatically logged out of the Windows server and rdesktop. Sound works great as long as sound is working on the thin clients (see my other posts for issues I'm running into with KDE).<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Here's the command line I use for the launcher:<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> esddsp rdesktop -r sound:local -d DomainName -f -s "C:\PathToProgram" <o:p></o:p> ServerIPAddress<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> The -r switch redirects the sound to the thin client, the -d is your Samba/Windows Domain Name, -f forces full-screen, -s starts the specified program and I connect to the Windows server via IP address as it's the most consistent.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> It does work. I have tested it on k12 v.6 and edubuntu 6.10. Worked well form both. This is how I changed the command<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> esddsp rdesktop –r sound:local –f ServerIPAddress<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Ernie Hudson<o:p></o:p> CLS 3 <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:PlaceName w:st="on">Serrano</st1:PlaceName> <st1:PlaceType w:st="on">High School</st1:PlaceType></st1:place><o:p></o:p> 760-868-3222 ext 2687<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> You can tell the size of your God by<o:p></o:p> looking at the size of your worry list.<o:p></o:p> The longer your list, the smaller your God."--Author Unknown<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
