NAME

       ltsp remoteapps - run applications on the LTSP server via ssh -X

SYNOPSIS

       ltsp [ltsp-options] remoteapps application [parameters] ...
       ltsp [ltsp-options] remoteapps [-r register] application ...

DESCRIPTION

       Setup passwordless SSH, by ensuring that ~/.ssh/authorized_keys contains one of the public
       user's SSH keys. Then execute ssh -X server app params.  If the user has no  SSH  keys,  a
       new  one  is generated.  For ltsp remoteapps app to work, /home/username should already be
       mounted via NFS (on LTSP client boot) or SSHFS (on LTSP user login).

OPTIONS

       See the ltsp(8) man page for ltsp-options.

       -r, --register
              Register  the  specified  applications  as  remoteapps,  by  creating  symlinks  in
              /usr/local/bin/application for each one of them. Since /usr/local/bin usually comes
              before /usr/bin in $PATH, the remoteapps should be invoked even if the  application
              is selected from the system menu.

EXAMPLES

       The  following  ltsp.conf  parameter  can be used to register the MATE applications users-
       admin (Menu ▸ System ▸ Administration ▸ Users and Groups) and mate-about-me (Menu ▸ System
       ▸ Preferences ▸ Personal ▸ About Me) as remoteapps:

       [clients]
       REMOTEAPPS="users-admin mate-about-me"

       That  way,  LTSP  users are able to change their passwords or display names.  The password
       change takes effect immediately, while for the new display name  to  appear  in  the  LTSP
       client, the sysadmin must run ltsp initrd and the client needs to be rebooted.
