Login URL |
The SGD Uniform Resource Locator (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.
If you use a browser to display the SGD webtop, the URL is
loaded automatically in your default browser so that you can log
in and access your webtop.
In Integrated mode, the URL is only loaded in your default
browser if you need to log in to SGD.
The default Login URL is http://server.example.com/sgd/index.jsp. |
Connect on System Login |
If enabled, the SGD Client is started
automatically with this profile whenever you log in to your computer.
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 your computer (Integrated mode).
If disabled, the applications you can run are displayed on
a webtop in a browser.
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 computers. |
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 English. |
Check for Local X Server |
If enabled, the SGD Client checks whether
there is an X server running on the computer.
Enabling this option can improve performance when launching
X applications that are configured to display using an X server
on the computer.
This setting only applies to Windows computers.
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 browser.
Manual Proxy Settings enable you to define the proxy server
settings in the profile. You can specify an Hypertext Transfer Protocol
(HTTP) proxy server.
If the proxy settings are determined from a browser, the settings
are stored and used the next time the SGD Client starts.
If Establish Proxy Settings on Session Start is enabled, the
SGD Client obtains the proxy settings from the browser every time
it starts. The stored proxy settings are not used. If Automatic
Client Login is selected, the Establish Proxy Settings on Session
Start setting is not available.
By default, the Use Default Web Browser Settings check box
is selected and the Establish Proxy Settings on Session Start check
box is not selected. |
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. |
