Connection type
Allows you to select the appropriate connection type. If you select
broadcast, the graphical login from the first XDMCP server that responds to
a broadcast query will be provided. If you choose the connection type
indirect via local host, a list of XDMCP hosts will be shown during the
startup procedure. Select from this list the host that provides the graphical
login.
Name or IP of the server
This field is enabled if you select the connection type direct or indirect.
Give the name or the IP address of the XDMCP server you wish to use. In
the direct mode, you are provided with the graphical login mask straight
from the XDCMP server which you specified in the entry field. If you chose
the indirect mode, a list of available XDMCP servers will be shown by the
server you specified.
Make sure the Display Manager daemon (XDM, KMD, GDM ...) is running and that access authorization is
available on the remote host.
6.1.3. Access Control
Thin client access control is enabled by default. If you disable access control, it will be possible to access
your terminal screen from any UNIX host.
Fixed X-Key
You can grant specific users permanent remote access to your thin client.
To do this, you will need to enable this option, click on the Calculate button
and enter the 32-character key you have received into the Xauthority file on
the user's computer.
List of permitted X hosts
Click on the Add button to open the entry mask. Give the name of the
remote host (not the IP address) you would like to add and confirm this by
clicking on OK.
6.1.4. Desktop
With the help of the following five dialog fields, you can configure the look and behavior of the desktop,
windows, taskbar, pagers (virtual screens) and start menu.
Only the pager mask is described in detail. You should therefore refer to the tool tips for all other masks.
