Auto-start student desktops #9

Closed BrentBaccala closed 4 years ago

BrentBaccala commented 4 years ago

Currently, student desktops have to be started manually.

Have some way to auto-start student desktops, and optionally persist them across sessions.

The student desktops now auto-start and persist across sessions, at least until you reboot the host or kill the "websockify" program.

This feature does depend on the "websockify" program being run with near-root privileges (sudo has to work without a password).
