Desktop Integration for Gnome - gnome-starter

This example shows the first step of graphical integration by "zenity" utily of Gnome. Therefore a starter utility is provided, which generates from the automaticly created operational database a tiny starter application. This provides the start of physical machines as well as virtualmachines, and in addition the native login to host and guest OSs.

This particularly comprises the graphical start of any supported VM, PM and the Login by a vendor independent standard interface with "mouse interaction" only.

The current version supports:

Hypervisor: KVM/QEMU(TM), VirtualBox(TM), VMware(TM), Xen(TM)
Betriebssysteme: Linux(TM), FreeBSD, OpenBSD, OpenSolaris(TM), Solaris(TM)
Desktops uand Consoles: CLI, RDP, VNC, X11

Therefore all connections - including the remote graphical user interfaces - are encrypted by OpenSSH.

for additional information refer to Online-Help ctys-configuration-Gnome(7)

Desktop Integration in Gnome - Manual Menue Entry

This example shows the start of a VM containing MS-Windows2000(TM) by a Gnome menue entry.

The following call is for display purposes splitted into multiple lines.

  /homen/acue/bin/ctys 
     delphi'(
      -t vmw 
      -a create=reuse,l:office001,b:/mntn/vmpool/vmpool03/vmw/office,user:acue 
      -g 1268x994:A11:ALL 
      -b 1 
      -c local
     )'

Actually the entry is one line only.

"/homen/acue/bin/ctys delphi'(-t vmw -a create=reuse,l:office001,b:/mntn/vmpool/vmpool03/vmw/office,user:acue -g 1268x994:A11:ALL -b 1 -c local)'"

Online Manuals

The help-interface provides in addition to the common man-pages the formats HTML and PDF. Therefore for each format the appropriate viewer, a HTML-Browser or a PDF-Viewer are started. This could be in addition easily integrated to user interfaces by simply defining a menue item.

Start Server Consoles

This example shows the procedures for the startup of a management desktop/workspace for Server administration. These remote desktops are transfered through an SSH tunnels and connected to UNIX-Domain-Sockets at their termination points. Thus could be applied to publich servers quite secure.
