[SunRay-Users] AMGH - unable to get started with "Getting Started"

[William Yang]

I split the scripts for the reason I mentioned on the documentation wiki...at least when I was initially playing with it I found that any changes to the script registered with AMGH required a utrestart to work, as if AMGH were reading in the script at software startup time instead of on-demand.

Did you read the man page: 
man -M/opt/SUNWut/man ut_amgh_script_interface 

This man page should be mentioned in the Administration Guide as well as 
my blog How-To. 

Basically when you run utamghadm it configures your script to be run by 
SRSS, and AMGH provides the input and consumes the output to drive the 
redirection and PAM (for pre-loading the username) logic. AMGH is 
driven by the pam_sunray_amgh.so PAM module in /etc/pam.conf (or 
/etc/pam.d/gdm, on Linux). 

William - why did you split realamgh from tjamgh? Why not just replace 
tjamgh with realamgh and keep it simple?
