Remote Desktop outside of a [batch] job
=======================================
2020-10-24
https://discourse.osc.edu/t/remote-desktop-outside-of-a-job/1179/1
I seem to recall there was a previous post that said work was being
done to create an OOD app that would provide a Remote Desktop
connection to a node (possibly in a pool of nodes) that is outside of
scheduler control; i.e., is like a login node.
We used to have a generic 'Linux login' pool of machines that was
accessed via a DNS round-robin address that people could log into
without having to have a cluster account, for which there was no
billing, etc. In other words, just a login node.
We would like to enable such a thing using OOD to provide a graphical
desktop as well as a terminal.
Is such an app available or in progress?
Thanks, – bennet

Bennet: I believe you are looking for our ‘linux host adapter’
