[ovirt-devel] SSO using remote-viewer

Ok, vdsClient with the desktopLogin works pretty well on the first step.
I found a weird behavior when closing remote-viewer window. Even a session 
remains open (no logout/switch user is performed), the subsequent connect with the _same ticket_ spits out a gdm window
with a password...

Well only the XMLRPC api of the Host supports the desktopLogin verb, as 
Michal already said.

vdsClient for example can do this, when it has the right certificates

vdsClient -s <HOSTIP> desktopLogin <VMID> <DOMAIN> <USER> <PASSWORD>

HTH

Could you please guide me on how to set a required certificates on
a client?

Thanks!
