Menu path: Setup > Sessions > ThinLinc > ThinLinc Global > Options

You can change various settings and enable local directories.

  • Enable Sound: If this option is enabled, the audio output will be forwarded from the server to the thin client. The audio data can then be played back via the built-in loudspeaker or the headset.
  • Redirect Serial Port: If this option is enabled, the data from the thin client serial port will be forwarded to the server. The serial port can then be used in the ThinLinc session.
  • Enable Printer: If this option is enabled, local printers can be used in the session.
  • Enable Smartcard Readers: If this option is enabled, the server will be given access to the local smartcard reader.
  • Enable Drive Access: If this option is enabled, the server will be given access to local directories. These directories can be selected in the Exported Paths and Permissions area.

To select a local directory for server-side access, proceed as follows:
  1. Click on .
  2. In the Path field, enter the local directory path. Example: /userhome
  3. Select the Permission that the server is to have for the directory.
    • Read only: The server has read rights for the directory but no write rights.
    • Read/Write: The server has read and write rights for the directory.
    • Disabled: The server has no read rights and no write rights for the directory.
    If you set a directory to Disabled, ensure that it is not a sub-directory of a directory for which the server has read or write rights.
  4. Click on Ok.
