[Bug 1006525] Re: epoptes-client doesnt not start if user root (e.g. kdm)

The system epoptes-client service does run as root from /etc/network/if-up.d/epoptes-client, so you can control the clients before logon.
If you're using a fresh epoptes version and it's correctly installed (if you're using LTSP it needs to be installed in the chroot too) and you can't control the clients, please comment again on this bug report.

It's true though that the session epoptes-client service can't be
started as root, as it's mentioned in LP bug #977049. That does need to
be fixed, but noone should have need for that.
