      Hello all,
        

        I'm wondering if it is possible to get Xspice to work for
          multiple concurrent users.
        

        Currently I got it to work with xdmcp to start up a
          spice-desktop session.
        However when the second user logs in the session will be
          taken over by that user.
        

        Is it possible to get this to work with Xspice ? (or
          similar solution)
        Bonus points if it works with sssd.
      
    
    Hey Rob,

    
    The idea with XSpice is to run one Xorg process per user session. 
    And that does work; I use it extensively.  There is not (yet) a
    seamless way to do this on Fedora.  I was just playing with this on
    Fedora 21, and it's still very fiddly, particularly with gdm. I
    found that if I modified /etc/gdm/custom.conf to enable xdmcp and
    set the ping interval to 0, then a 

      XSpice -query localhost  <other parameters as needed>

    
    seemed to work, although I had to set aside my play while it was
    still fairly fiddly.  I was hoping to get more time to play to write
    a little bit of apache fu to spin up a user session on demand, but I
    haven't gotten to it yet :-/.

    
    Cheers,

    
    Jeremy
