configure settings that affect all of the connection in the list.
Login dialog box features
While the Login dialog box allows you to log on to the server, it also allows you to:
● Obtain system information.
● Access Admin Mode to configure zero client settings.
● Change or reset your own password and unlock your account.
● Open the Shutdown dialog box by using CTRL+ALT+DELETE.
In the Login dialog Box, use the following guidelines:
● System Information — Click the Sys Info button to open the System Information dialog box. You can view the zero
client system information such as System Version, IP Address, information on devices connected to your zero client, event
logs and so on.
● Admin Mode — Click the Admin Mode button to configure various settings locally on the zero client other than broker
desktop configurations. For example, you can choose to manually configure the Citrix Xen Broker Server URL or override
the URL that is centrally defined by file servers by using the Remote Connections dialog box as described in Remote
Connections
○ Zero Desktop — Use the Leave Administrator Mode option in the Shutdown dialog box, or use the Leave
Administrator Mode icon (X) in the upper-right pane of the System Settings menu.
NOTE:
○ By default the Admin Mode button is not displayed on the log on dialog box. You can display it by selecting the
Show local admin button check box in the Shutdown dialog box, see Signing Off and Shutting Down.
○ By default there is no password needed for Admin Mode button use. You can password protect the Admin Mode
button (to require login credentials) by using the AdminMode parameter in a wnos.ini file, see the INI section in this
Guide.
● Shutdown — Press CTRL+ALT+DELETE to open and use the Shutdown dialog box to sign off, shut down, restart, reset
the system setting to factory defaults, and so on. For information, see Signing Off and Shutting Down.
● Account Self-Service — Click the Account Self-Service icon shown when configured using the AccountSelfService
option of the PasswordServer INI parameter to open and use the Account Self-Service dialog box to change or reset your
own password and unlock your account. For information on INI parameter, see the INI section in this Guide.
This process assumes that the security questions and answers have been pre-registered by the user inside of their Windows
environment. Users must use HTTPS (not HTTP) for an account self-service server address such as https://IPAddress, in the
Broker Setup tab.After answering the security questions, your new password will be set or your account will be unlocked.
