=====Open-source Sun Ray Server=====

[[https://www.jopenray.com/|jOpenRay]] is new Open Source project aiming to improve the experience of thin clients administrators & users. Currently only supports Sun Ray 2 hardware by Sun Microsystems.

[[https://github.com/classilla/kopenray|GitHub - classilla/kopenray]] is a fork of jOpenRay, an open-source Java server for Sun Ray 2 devices. Unfortunately, jOpenRay hasn't been updated since 2010 (though there have been [[https://github.com/collegiumv/jopenray|modest attempts]], some of which is in this codebase), and it has various issues with newer SunRay hardware and later JDKs. kOpenRay is a possibly intermittently potentially incompletely successful attempt to fix these problems. Like jOpenRay, kOpenRay runs anywhere Java does (including Windows, macOS, Linux and Solaris), and is free and open-source under the GNU Public License. This version of kOpenRay is only suitable for exploratory use on a secured LAN and should not be used on a production external-facing interface.
