HP Remote Graphics Software 5.4.0 User Guide

Figure 2-8 Sharing between workstations
In Figure 2-8 Sharing between workstations on page 19, the primary user is directly logged into the
Remote Computer using its attached keyboard, mouse and monitor. In other words, the primary user is
physically present at the Remote Computer, while local user 1 and local user 2 are physically separate
from the Remote Computer. RGS can be used by local users 1 and 2 to connect to the primary user’s
desktop.
2.9 Establishing an RGS connection using Standard
Login
In normal operation, users are required to authenticate twice when establishing an RGS connection
from a Local Computer to a Remote Computer. This is the Standard Login process—the two steps are:
1.
The first authentication step is from the RGS Receiver to the RGS Sender— this is called
authenticating the RGS connection. The dialog for this authentication step is generated and
displayed by the RGS Receiver on the Local Computer.
2.
The second authentication step is when logging into or unlocking the Remote Computer desktop
session— this is called logging into the Remote Computer. The login or unlock dialog is generated
by the Remote Computer, and is displayed in the Remote Display Window on the Local Computer.
Figure 2-9 Standard Login process on page 19 shows the two-step Standard Login RGS
connection process.
