HP ThinPro 5.2 - Administrator Guide

Option Description
VNC Use Password Makes a password required when accessing the thin client using VNC.
Click Set Password to set the password.
VNC Notify User to Allow Refuse Enables a notication dialog on the remote system that informs the
remote user when someone is attempting to connect using VNC. The
user can refuse either allow or refuse access.
VNC Show Timeout for Notication Sets the length of time in seconds that the remote notication dialog is
displayed.
User Notication Message Allows you to display a message in the notication dialog to the remote
user.
Refuse connections in default If enabled, the VNC connection will be refused by default when the timer
expires.
Re-set VNC server right now Resets the VNC server after applying the new settings.
Certicates
NOTE: For more information about using certicates in Linux, go to http://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/
x509.html.
Certicate Manager
To open the Certicate Manager:
▲
Select Advanced > Certicates in the Control Panel.
Use the Certicate Manager to manually install a certicate from a certicate authority (CA). This action
copies the certicate to the user’s local certicate store (/usr/local/share/ca-certicates) and congures
OpenSSL to use the certicate for connection verication.
If desired, use the Prole Editor to attach the certicate to a prole, as described in Adding certicates to a
ThinPro prole on page 64.
NOTE: Generally, a self-signed certicate will work as long as it is valid according to specication and can be
veried by OpenSSL.
SCEP Manager
To open the SCEP Manager:
▲
Select Advanced > SCEP Manager in the Control Panel.
Use the SCEP Manager when you need to enroll or renew client-side certicates from a CA.
During an enrollment or renewal, the SCEP Manager generates the thin client’s private key and certicate
request, and then it sends the request to the CA on the SCEP server. When the CA issues the certicate, the
certicate is returned and placed in the thin client’s certicate store. OpenSSL uses the certicate for
connection verication.
NOTE: Before enrollment, make sure that the SCEP server is congured properly.
Use the Identifying tab of the SCEP Manager to enter information about the user, if desired.
