[Pianod] Client connections

Hi Ansen,

"Ansen Labardee" <alabardee at veinclinicpa.com> asked:
> Once and a while I have issues getting past the initial login screen, I was able to replicate this on a machine that had never used the web client, I opened a link that used auto login (192.168.X.35/index.html?server=192.168.X.41:8000&login=auto) and then attempting to open 192.168.X.35/index.html to actually authenticate as admin. When clicking login nothing happens, it just sits there, server, port and UN/PW have all been verified. Do you have any ideas?
Do you get a “Connection failed” or other error message at the bottom of the window?

Is it intermittent across all browsers, or is it one certain one?  


>  Also would it be possible to actually just auto login as admin using the same url tactic as above? I don’t really want end-users to have to interact with the login screen at all. I guess another solution would to be give guests admin access as well but I’m not entirely sure how to do that with your software.

I think what you’re looking for, is to just let users login as visitors (no username/password) and raise visitors with higher rank.  In the startscript use:
	set visitor rank user
This approach prevents use of autotuning (which requires accounts to store user station ratings).  You can set visitor rank to none, guest, user, or admin.  This solution will make autotuning useless, since it requires user accounts for storing user station preferences, but if you don’t care about that...
