authenticated, the connection is closed. On Windows, authentication uses NTLM or Kerberos. On Linux,
authentication uses the Pluggable Authentication Module (PAM).
●
Authorization: Multiple connections to the same remote computer are only allowed if the user logged
into the desktop of the remote computer (primary user) allows the connection. When another user
attempts to connect to the remote computer, an authorization dialog is displayed on the desktop of the
remote computer that asks whether the new user should be allowed to connect.
●
Automatic desktop locking: The desktop of the remote computer locks when the primary user
disconnects. This prevents collaboration users from being able to interact with a remote session after
the primary user has disconnected. This feature is supported on Windows. On Linux, this feature is
supported on the Gnome, KDE, and CDE desktop environments.
●
Automatic disconnect: On Linux, all RGS Receivers will disconnect when the primary user disconnects.
This prevents collaboration users from interaction with a remote session after the primary user
disconnects.
●
Automatic disconnect of collaboration users on login: All collaboration users are disconnected when a
login event occurs. Only the primary user remains connected when the desktop of the remote computer
is logged in.
●
Automatic disconnect on logoff: All RGS Receivers are disconnected when the primary user logs off of
the remote desktop. This can be disabled by setting the IsDisconnectOnLogoutEnabled RGS
Sender property to 0. See
RGS Sender properties on page 91.
●
Connection status: A desktop icon in the application tray animates when other users are connected.
●
Collaboration notification: See
Collaboration notification dialog on page 45.
●
Disconnect Everyone: All RGS Receivers can be easily disconnected using the RGS Sender GUI. This is
useful when hosting a collaboration session, such as in a classroom environment, and the session ends.
The RGS Sender GUI is an icon in the system tray. Simply right-click the GUI and select Disconnect >
Everyone.
●
Remote Keyboard/Mouse: The RGS Sender GUI can enable or disable mouse and keyboard input for all
collaboration users.
●
Single user connection: A user, identified by a username, is only allowed one connection to a RGS
Sender. If the same username connects more than once to a RGS Sender, the previous connection drops
and the new connection continues on. If several users attempt to share a username, only one
connection is active at a time.
●
SSL encryption: SSL securely encrypts all data transmitted between a RGS Receiver and Sender pair.
Remote computer monitor blanking operation
Monitor blanking on the remote computer is provided for security, so that the primary user’s desktop session
on the remote computer is not visible if a monitor is connected to the remote computer.
The default behavior is that the remote computer monitor will blank to black when the user connects and
logs in. The remote computer monitor will un-blank when the user disconnects or logs out. Below are several
additional details on monitor blanking on HP personal workstations:
●
The one element on the monitor that does not go blank is the cursor.
●
Blanking can take up to two seconds from the time the primary user logs in or reconnects until the time
that the monitor is actually blanked.
