HP Remote Graphics Software 6.0 User Guide

7. If another desktop manager, such as Enlightenment, is being used, you will need to make similar
changes to the PAM configuration file used by it. Consult your Linux and Desktop Manager
documentation for further information.
8. If the PAM system has been configured to use custom PAM authentication modules, then you
may need to manually configure the PAM module that is used by the RGS Sender. You should
consult your Linux documentation when configuring PAM. If you are using a custom PAM
authentication module called “libpam_custom.1” you may need to edit the PAM configuration file
"/etc/pam.d/rgsender” to specify the PAM authentication module to be used by the RGS Sender.
For example, you may need to add the following line to the file "/etc/pam.d/rgsender”.
auth optional /lib/security/pam_custom.1
9. The RGS Sender will not accept remote connections when a DNS name inquiry does not resolve
to a valid/active IP address—it expects to fully resolve the machine name to an active network
connection IP. To test this, the command hostname -i should report an active IP address for
the qualified hostname. Failure to resolve this address from a qualified hostname may result in
remote connection errors. One way to address the hostname/IP name resolution is to edit the /
etc/hosts file, and bind the machine name to its proper IP address as follows:
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain
88.1.89.122 blade2 blade2.datacenter.com
Manually disabling Easy Login on Linux
Easy Login can be disabled on Linux by adding the following properties to the rgsenderconfig file:
Rgsender.IsAnonymousConnectionForceEnabled=0
Rgsender.IsClassicEasyLogonEnabled=0
Uninstalling the RGS Sender on Linux
To uninstall the RGS Sender on Linux, perform the following steps:
1. Log in as root.
2. If the default install.sh was used, then the following command should report some variation of
the following packages:
# rpm -qa | grep -i rgsender
rgsender_linux_64-5.4.8-1
rgsender_config_64-5.4.8-1
3. To remove the rgsender package (and corresponding configuration rpm if used), execute the
command:
rpm -e --allmatches rgsender_linux_64 rgsender_config_64
4. If the rgsender_config_64-*.rpm was installed, it must be removed first (or together as
demonstrated above) before removing the rgsender_linux_64-*.rpm package. This resolves
dependencies between the packages, and undoes the previous customizations performed by
this rpm. If you are upgrading your system from a previous version of RGS, it is suggested that
you remove both packages, and then apply the new software rpms for supported results.
