The default user name for the administration account is admin.

The password is set during the Sun Ray server configuration. If you can't remember the administration password, you can use the utconfig -w command to reconfigure the administration software, including the password. To change the administration password, use the Advanced tab in the Admin GUI or the utpw command.

To allow another user account to perform administrative functions, see How to Enable or Disable Multiple Administration Accounts (Oracle Linux) or How to Enable or Disable Multiple Administration Accounts (Oracle Solaris).

Table 4.2, “Admin GUI Tab Descriptions” describes tabs provided with the Admin GUI. See Appendix B, Admin GUI Help for detailed reference information.

All actions performed within the Admin GUI that modify system settings are logged in an audit trail.

This procedure describes how to log in to the Sun Ray Administration tool.

If you get a message denying access, check the following items:

If you get a blank browser page:

To display the locale correctly in the Admin GUI, change your browser's language preferences to the desired locale.

This procedure describes how to change the Admin GUI to display English if it is displaying an undesired language.

For a more permanent solution, you can remove the non-English Sun Ray Software packages from the server. The following example removes the French packages and restarts the web admin services.

# /etc/init.d/utwadmin stop
# pkgrm SUNWfuta SUNWfutwa SUNWfutwh SUNWfutwl
# /etc/init.d/utwadmin start

This procedure describes how to change the timeout for the Admin GUI. By default, the Admin GUI timeout value is 30 minutes.

The Sun Ray server administrator can allow any valid UNIX user ID, which has been added to the utadmin authorized user list, to administer Sun Ray services using the Admin GUI. An audit trail of activity on these accounts is provided. The utadminuser command enables you to add existing UNIX users to the utadmin authorized user list.

Authentication for accounts with administrative privileges is based on the PAM authentication framework.

# BEGIN: added to utadmingui by SunRay Server Software -- utadmingui
auth sufficient /opt/SUNWut/lib/pam_sunray_admingui.so.1
# END: added to utadmingui by SunRay Server Software -- utadmingui

An audit trail of activity on these accounts is provided. The utadminuser command enables you to add existing UNIX users to the utadmin authorized user list.

Authentication for accounts with administrative privileges is based on the PAM authentication framework.

#%PAM-1.0 # BEGIN: added to utadmingui by SunRay Server Software -- utadmingui

The administration framework provides an audit trail of the Admin GUI. The audit trail is an audit log of the activities performed by multiple administration accounts. All events that modify system settings are logged in the audit trail. Sun Ray Software uses the syslog implementation.

The events are logged in the following log file:

/var/opt/SUNWut/log/messages

All audit events are prefixed with the keyword utadt:: so you can filter events from the messages file.

For example, session termination from the Admin GUI generates the following audit event:

Jun 6 18:49:51 sunrayserver usersession[17421]: [ID 521130 user.info] utadt:: username= /
{demo} hostname={sunrayserver} service={Sessions}

message={terminated User "Cyberflex_Access_FullCrypto.1047750b1e0e" with display number="4" on  /
