Hi,
Is there a way for one account to fetch information from another account's DCOP
service?
If I open a Konsole session that logs into another account's shell, can that shell
fetch
the SessionName from the DCOP of the Konsole account?

Is TDE running in the target account?
What is the dcop service you are looking for?
I tried now connecting to the PC where TDE is running and the first thing I
notice is that the environment is missing, so dcop command is not in the
path.

I
want to fetch the SessionName for the session that's running a Root Shell session.
(The session
names are not necessarily "Root Shell", "Root Shell No. 2", etc.,
because I rename them. I want the root
shell's .bashrc to be able to tell what session it's running in, but it needs to
talk to the dcop server of the
account that owns the Konsole instance.
I tried now connecting to the PC where TDE is running and the first thing I
notice is that the environment is missing, so dcop command is not in the
path.

Are you speaking of an environment variable? If so, which one?

The root sessions running in the user account's Konsole sessions only show trinity in
the PATHS
variable; none of the other above variables are set, because root is not logged in as a
TDE graphical
user. Also,
| ~
| $ px dcopserver
| leslie 6647 1 0 Mar05 ? 00:00:00 dcopserver [tdeinit] --nosid --suicide
| @00:26:30,leslie@pinto rc=0
and
| ~
| ● px dcopserver
| root 20771 1 0 Mar05 ? 00:00:00 dcopserver
| @00:26:39,root@pinto rc=0
I suppose that the root sessions need to talk to dcopserver with PID 6647, not 20771,
since 6647 is
associated with the account running Konsole.

I had a sort of epiphany in the middle of the night a few days ago: "why not call
dcop
via sudo to the owner of the Konsole that's hosting my terminal session?" And
that
works, though there are still a few issues for getting the information I need to
definitively identify my terminal session.
| sudo -u <konsoleOwner> -c /opt/trinity/bin/dcop --user <konsoleOwner>
--list-sessions
| sudo -u <konsoleOwner> -c /opt/trinity/bin/dcop --user <konsoleOwner>
--session
session-<number> ...
Don't know why I didn't think of that long ago.
