Are you using kiosk session?. It supported only with SRWC/VDI/SRVC kiosk sessions.

Thanks

i am not sure, i am using UTTSC username IPaddress e.g. UTTSC Administrator 192.168.1.1 with meta kiosk broker session as the Kiosk mode

I need to be able to connect to individual VM not a pool of them hence using the current method that is probably incorrect.

You better use the SRWC kiosk session which comes by default after installing SRWC.
You can pass the arguments as what ever curently passing for meta kiosk session.

does that require any VMware products like VMware View?

Do you mean Sun Ray Connector for Windows OS?

No just give the IP address of your windows box.

So do i add that information in the other info feild for the smart cards like I do for Meta Kiosk?

UTTSC IPAddress??

Thanks for you help i having been really stuggling with this.

So you want to use different IP addresses based on the token.
Sorry, that can't be done with native SRWC kiosk session.
uttsc has an undocumented -r usb:on to enable the USB redirection.
Pass that argument to your meta kiosk.

so how does native SRWC work? does it connect to a pool of VMs?

What would you advise to be the best option.

I have a set of users that need to be able to connect to the same machine everytime they logon due to specific applications and confuguarations.

using meta kiosk with UTTSC was ok but doesnt support USB redirection as standard. this is causeing issues.

SRWC as an isolated product connects to the host you pass as an argument. I believe that is what you currently do.

The SRWC kiosk session that comes with SRWC is configured with a single host argument, so all kiosk sessions connect to the same host. This is intended primarily for use with Windows Server Terminal Services/Remote Desktop Services.
The Oracle VDI product is what you need to connect to pools of VMs. It is a VDI broker that manages VMs and that connects your Sun Ray sessions to the correct VM. It uses SRWC and Kiosk Mode internally.
'Meta Kiosk' isn't part of a supported Sun product, so I can't say anything about it. You might try to make your 'meta kiosk' chain to the kiosk session script of the official SRWC kiosk session (under /etc/opt/SUNWkio/sessions/uttsc/) - that should give you USB redirection. You can also look at that script to discover the private parameter for uttsc that enables USB redirection. That parameter is not publically documented, as it isn't tested or supported outside a full-screen Windows kiosk session.

uttsc -r usb:on ip-windows-box
