Customize Amazon WorkSpaces Login

Need suggestions how to automate user login to Amazon WorkSpaces from Ubuntu 18.04 desktops.
We're a small Engineering shop of 20 users all using Ubuntu 18.04 desktops to connect to Amazon WorkSpaces (mix of Windows and Linux). Since there isn't a WorkSpaces client yet for Linux, we use the Windows version over WINE.
Our Intranet portal allows for somewhat automated login process where clicking a Connect button does 4 things:
Use the URI syntax workspaces://username#registrationcode to launch WorkSpaces Client.
Display the username, registration code, and disposable password in the Intranet page.
Populate Username and Registration Code in the WorkSpaces Client.
Copy password to clipboard.
Details in https://docs.aws.amazon.com/workspaces/latest/adminguide/customize-workspaces-user-login.html
User would still need to copy password from Intranet page and paste to WorkSpaces Client to complete login. We're trying to eliminate this step as users are in & out of WorkSpaces multiple times a day.
I'm considering zenity but unsure if this is the correct approach.
Please suggest options in Ubuntu 18.04 to automate auto-pasting password to WorkSpaces Client.
There is a native Linux Client https://clients.amazonworkspaces.com/linux-install.html and it looks promising. I'm just trying to get it going myself and can log in but I'm getting an error connecting to the desktop. It might be the Ubuntu image we're using.

Why can't I connect to SQLCE/IIS web service when there is no network connection on the desktop?

I have a Windows CE 5 device that I connect through USB to a Desktop. On the desktop is the SQLCE replication(?) web service/dll (Merge Replication Agent). It's installed properly as far as I know-- the test on the desktop to localhost/sqlce/sqlcesa35.dll works as it should. I plug in the mobile device and try to connect to the web service, but it only connects when the desktop has a network connection-- that is, if a LAN cable is plugged in.
Why is this so and how can I make it connect even without a network on the desktop?
Install the Microsoft loopback adapter https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2777200?wa=wsignin1.0

XenApp on VirtualBox?

I would like to deploy an Application using XenApp on a linux server. Is it possible to do this via virtual box on a remote linux machine?
So far I have installed virtual box on a centos based linux machine.
I installed a Windows 2008 R2 Server virtual machine.
I then tried to install XenApp on the windows 2008 server.
After updating the windows 2008 server with the latest stuff and adding .net 3.5 and sql server express I got XenApp installed.
I am stuck at the point of deploying the Single Sign-On service. It wants a "UNC path to the central store of the citricl signle sign on". Does anyone know how to set that up?
I don't have a domain controller, nor do I have active directory installed. Do I need those things? I was really hoping to avoid that.
What does XenApp require? I kind of figured it would be plug and play but it doesn't appear that way and the installation instructions are very vague about system requirements.
Thanks
Single Sign-On is not required for XenApp.
From the documentation
Citrix Single Sign-on (formerly Citrix Password Manager) provides password security and single sign-on access to Windows, Web, and terminal emulator applications running in the Citrix environment as well as applications running on the desktop. Users authenticate once and Single Sign-on does the rest, automatically logging on to password-protected information systems, enforcing password policies, monitoring all password-related events, and even automating user tasks, including password changes.
Basically: SSO needs a place to put the Central Password Store.
Just give it a path to a network share that all XenApp servers can access. If you're using a single machine; create a local network share and point to it using UNC
\\localhost\SSO_Store

Stucked on login user profile services

I have an image of a windows server 2012 in AWS. Sometimes when I try to initialize this machine I get stucked on the login screen with the message "Please wait for the user profile service". Then I completely lose the server. Does anyone have any idea on why this is happening and what I can do to avoid it?
Not sure if its related but I had a similar experience with Windows Server 2012 VMs hosted on Windows Server 2012. It was due to IPv6 being disabled on my setup.

SharePoint Web Services, Access Denied, Authentication Issues via VS 2010

After not getting much help on the last question, I decided to blow away the VM and re-create it as I already lost a week on this issue. And of course still issues, btu a little different.
I am using WSS on a 2008 server. I removed from the SharePoint admin the blocked asmx page types. I am using the administrator account with password and the domain, which is the IP of the VM machine. Normally I would never recommend using the admin account, but since I am just running a test to connect to SharePoint web services, so be it.
When accessing this site via a webbrowser, no issues whatsoever.
When accessing the web services from the browser using the admin credentials, no problem.
Then when trying to access the web service via Visual Studio I get the windows security dialog;
Followed by a discovery credential for the list;
Followed by another Discovery Credential for access to the error.aspx page, but as you can see, I can see the list of services for lists.asmx;
Followed by yet another Discovery Credential asking for permission to the $metadata and this just continues continually -it will NEVER authenticate via visual studio 2010;
And then, of course, when the code is ran, what do we get - ACCESS DENIED.
Call made; code not listed makes connection.
Make call to service:
And receive the error.
And IIS for SharePoint is set top Windows Authentication and Impersonate. All defaults.
It has now been going on 5 days; does anyone at all have any clue as to what is causing this? I have used this code and technique for years with Windows Server 2003 and WSS 2.0 and / or MOSS 2007 connecting from remote machines and NEVER, I mean NEVER had issues like this.
I would really appreciate any help.
