Auto Login to a website

Post#1 by **ghostdog** » 10 Apr 2023, 09:07

Hello,

I'm new to Porteus Linux. I really like it and it is what I was looking for.
I read some of the information and I'm still confused about how to move the .mozilla fire over to the guest account and set it up to auto-login to the website.
I was able to move it over, but It will not show the website or auto login. Can anybody provide me with help and point me in the right direction?

thank you

What version of Porteeus are you using?

For most versions doing something like this will work. In your /home/guest/Desktop folder create a text file named fire.desktop then into it create something like the following:

Code: Select all

[Desktop Entry]
Name=Forge of Empires
Exec=firefox https://us.forgeofempires.com/#_ga=1.37247257.30901205.1457162339
Icon=/home/guest/Pictures/FoE.ico
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Name[en_US]=FoE
StartupNotify=true[code]
Name=, Exec= URL, and Icon= are up to you to create for your needs.  

Once saved make it executable.

Hello,

I'm using Porteus Kiosk 5.5.0
What I'm trying to go is create a signing kiosk for my office.

Ok. My solution was for normal Porteus, whether it will work for the Kiosk system I don't know.

I've moved your question to the Kiosk section so more specific help will be coming.
