Menu path: Setup > Sessions > RDP > RDP Sessions > [Session Name] > Server

In this area, you can overwrite the following server connection details and thus the default settings:

Choose between Server and RemoteApps Mode.


Server

To set up a server, proceed as follows:

  1. Give the Server name or the IP address.
  2. Define the RDP Port which is to be used for the connection.
    The default port is 3389.
  3. Under Application, specify a start-up application for the terminal server session.
  4. Specify the Working Directory.
  5. Enable Changeable Server-URL on Local Logon in order to allow the server to be entered freely. You must have enabled local logon in order to do this.
    Otherwise, the terminal server logon window will be displayed for you to enter a user name and password. If the local logon is used (see above), the thin client's logon window. will be shown.
    If the Passthrough Authentication option is enabled, the session with the local logon data for the terminal user, e.g. from the domain logon, is used. However, this setting will be overridden by the Local Logon global parameter. You should therefore not use both options at the same time.


Microsoft RemoteApp

Like the published applications of a Citrix server, MS Windows Server 2008 offers the option of passing on RemoteApps to the thin client.

Detailed instructions regarding server configuration can also be found on the Microsoft website: TS RemoteApp Step-by-Step Guide.

On the client side, only a few parameters need to be configured after enabling the RemoteApp mode.

Please note that the name of the application to be launched must be preceded by two pipe characters (||), e.g.||Excel.
