RDP le customization
Adding custom values
HP Easy Shell automatically generates the RDP le for the RDP connections that you create. To add custom
values to the RDP le, use the Expert tab in the RDP connection editor. The value type can be s (string), i
(integer), or b (byte).
Using a custom RDP le
To use a custom RDP le:
1. On the Basic tab in the RDP connection editor, enable the Custom RDP le option.
2. Specify the RDP le path.
Adding a Citrix StoreFront connection
NOTE: On the devices that connect to the StoreFront server, you must install the SSL certicates for your
StoreFront server. If no certicates exist, HP Easy Shell might fail to communicate with the server.
1. In the StoreFront panel, select the StoreFront tile.
2. Select the Select store button to use the wizard.
– or –
Enter the full path for the StoreFront URL in the Store URL box in a format similar to:
https://samplestorefrontaddress.net/citrix/thinclient. Then, go to step 6.
TIP: If you do not include http:// or https:// in the URL, it defaults to https://.
