Raspberry Pi - Wallboard Deployment

[aron]

Hello

We are looking to deploy a Raspberry Pi to be used for an unattended wallboard unit. The query I have is there any auto login functionality either on the WebPortal or the Client that could be used to automatically log the client in and once connected display a specific Dashboard?

I am assuming you will ship these with pre-configured agent software on them.  If so, you should be able to use the server variable EnableAgentRegistration set to enabled to allow them to call in as they are turned up.  Is that what you are going after?

If you just want to display a specific web page from the web interface setup a "kiosk".  Here is one example using Ubuntu - http://www.instructables.com/id/Setting-Up-Ubuntu-as-a-Kiosk-Web-Appliance/.  Then just have the browser setup to auto fill password pages, their are lots of addons for this. 

Hope this helps.

Hello

Sorry this is for the console, not as a remote agent. My intention was to have a login ability more along the lines of the below;

nxmc -u User -p Password -start Dashboard.StartupDash

or

http://192.168.1.100/?username=User&password=Password&startup=Dashboard.StartupDash

Hi!

I have added command line options to nxmc.exe to allow automatic connect. New options are:

-auto - connect automatically
-server=address - set server address
-login=login_name - set login
-password=password - set password

These changes will be included in 1.2.4 release. If you need them urgently, contact me.

Best regards,
Victor
