[Question #254032]: Execute Command not working - xterm socat

 

New question #254032 on Epoptes:
https://answers.launchpad.net/epoptes/+question/254032

I have LinuxMint 17 on both client and server.  Trying to run a terminal window through Epoptes by using the Clients: Execute: Open Terminal.  In all cases (user-locally, root-locally, root-remotely) I get an error message:

$ xterm: Can't execvp socat: No such file or directory

Whoops... found the problem.  socat was not installed on the system.  after installing socat, it works fine.  Why wouldn't socat be installed with epoptes by default? (had a similar problem with broadcasting because x11vnc was not installed)

Hope this helps someone else!
