Description : Start and access a virtual machine from a browser
The service allows authorized users to launch a remote virtual
machine, and display it in a browser window. No additional software
installation is needed on the client side.
Once installed (see below), connect to http://server/qemu-web-desktop
The user credentials can be tested against IMAP, SMTP, and LDAP. In
this case, a user ID (login name) and password are
required. Authentication can also be achieved using an email sent with
connection information.
When authentication is successful, a virtual machine is launched and
can be displayed in the browser window. In most cases (this depends on
the configuration - see below), a unique "token" is requested to
secure the connection.
This software was initially developed at Synchrotron Soleil, but can
be useful to others. I'm not currently looking for co-maintainers or a
sponsor, but I'll maintain it under the Debian group at Salsa.
