I have a Fedora Core 2 Linux + VNC Server (running into xinetd). Then, the users may connect remotely to this server and run an app that I put into desktop (shortcut). But the users have access to other apps like OpenOffice and Mozilla, and I want:
1) the user may logon and the app starts automatically. Where do I do this? 2) none taskbar, console, etc, the app must start using full-screen, with no way to change to other apps like Alt+Tab shortcut. Is it possible? 3) the GUI must be light, I'd like to use some GUI with lower resources than GNOME and KDE. What's the better for this case? 4) the users may be in slow links, I think to use in the future softwares like FreeNX, and the GUI must be really with low graphical complexities...
Thanks for any suggestions...
Have you looked into running just the app, with no Desktop Environment. (To test locally, try editing ~.xinitrc and then commenting out what's
there and just putting something like emacs). They could still start
other application from a command line and have them display, but it
would make it more difficult and non-obvious.
If this is what you want I can help you figure out how to do this for vnc (I've done something simular, but I would have to play to get everything correct in my message).
Thanks, Bill
Hi Bill,
If possible, I'd like to start only one app full-screen, and no way for the user to start others. Thing some kind of application like "bank terminals", where the user has no chance to do something different from access the bank application...
