Login URL |
The SGD URL to use for the profile. This
is usually http://server.example.com/sgd,
where server.example.com is the name
of an SGD server.
In Webtop mode, the URL is loaded automatically in your default
web browser so that you can log in and access your webtop.
In Integrated mode, the URL is only loaded in your default web
browser if you need to log in to SGD, or if the SGD Client needs
to obtain proxy server settings.
The default Login URL is http://server.example.com:80/sgd/index.jsp. |
Connect on System Login |
If enabled, the SGD Client is started
automatically with this profile whenever you log in to your client
device.
If enabled, the SGD Client creates an application shortcut
or symbolic link for itself in the startup folder of your desktop system.
This is disabled by default. |
Add Applications to Start Menu |
Controls how you use SGD.
If enabled, the applications you can run are displayed in
the desktop Start or Launch Menu on the client device (Integrated
mode).
If disabled, the applications you can run are displayed on
a webtop in a web browser (Webtop mode).
With Integrated mode, you cannot suspend and resume individual
applications or pause and resume individual print jobs.
This is disabled by default. |
Automatic Client Login |
If enabled, as soon as the SGD Client
starts, it attempts to log you in automatically to SGD. Your Administrator
can tell you whether automatic logins are being used.
You can only enable this option if the Add Applications to Start
Menu setting is enabled.
This is disabled by default. |
Alternative PDF Viewer |
The application command for an alternative
PDF viewer to use with PDF printing.
If the application is not on your PATH,
type the full path to the application.
This setting only applies to UNIX, Linux, and Mac OS X platform
client devices. |
Logging |
Controls the amount of information that
is output to the SGD Client log file.
The output is logged to a text file in the same directory
as the SGD Client.
The default is Errors only. |
Preferred Language |
The default language to use when the
SGD Client is started from the command line. For example, when the
SGD Client is in Integrated mode.
The language selected is used for messages displayed by the SGD
Client, the login dialog, and the webtop.
The default is en. |
Check for Local X Server |
If enabled, the SGD Client checks whether
there is an X server running on the client device.
Enabling this option can improve performance when launching
X applications that are configured to display using an X server
on the client device.
This setting only applies to Windows client devices.
This setting is disabled by default. |
Proxy Settings |
Settings that control how the SGD Client
determines what proxy servers to use.
Use Default Web Browser Settings means use the proxy server
settings configured in your default web browser.
Manual Proxy Settings enable you to define the proxy server settings
in the profile. You can specify an HTTP proxy server.
In Integrated mode, if the proxy settings are determined from a
web browser, the SGD Client has to start your web browser at least
once in order to detect what the proxy settings are.
If the proxy settings are determined from a web browser, the settings
are stored and used the next time the SGD Client starts.
If Establish Proxy Settings on Session Start is enabled, every time
the SGD Client starts, the default web browser is started so that
the proxy settings can be determined. The stored proxy settings
are not used.
The default is: Use Default Web Browser Settings, with Establish
Proxy Settings on Session Start disabled. |
Connection Failure |
Settings that control what the SGD Client
does if the connection to an SGD server is lost: Whether to always reconnect,
to never reconnect or to ask you what to do.
If the SGD Client reconnects, these settings control how many attempts
are made to reconnect and the time in seconds between each attempt.
If the SGD Client is unable to reconnect, the webtop session ends
and any running applications are ended or suspended, depending on
how they have been configured for you.
The default settings are: Always Attempt to Reconnect, Number
of Attempts: 6, and Interval: 10. |
