See here:
http://porteus-kiosk.org/remote-managem ... quirements

Code: Select all

f) If you double parameters in the config then only first one will be processed by the system
and here:
http://porteus-kiosk.org/parameters.html#whitelist

Delete doubled 'whitelist=' parameter and use this:

Code: Select all

whitelist=samsxpress.com samsxpresscarwash.com
Please post kiosk related questions in kiosk section of the forum.

Thanks
