Auto Login

Post by JohnFLi »

In my datacenter, we will be mounting a 48" tv, and have a thin client attached to it and its purpose in life is to display Nagios. The service/problem screen to be exact.

Is it possible to have so when the computer boots up, it can automaticlly sign-in to Nagios and go to that page?

That's really more of an automation question than a Nagios question, but yes it should be possible. You would need to write a script that will launch your browser at the Nagios IP and then provide the login credentials before clicking through to the page. How this is accomplished is entirely dependent on your environment. Autohotkey is a good solution for Windows.
