(enablelocal=yes), locally-defined connection definitions can be saved in these
cases.
• Stand-alone user - Locally-defined connections are retained when the thin client
restarts or is shut down (there is no individual log-on). Network configuration
settings must be made locally.
• Settings - Clicking Settings opens the Connection Settings dialog box for the selected
connection (for more information on the Connection Settings dialog box, refer to "About
Configuring ICA and RDP Connections"). Be aware of the following information:
• High-privileged user - Can view and edit the definitions for the currently-selected
connection. Edits are not permanently retained when the user signs-off.
• Stand-alone user - Can permanently modify the persistent connections (except
when PNAgent/PNLite services are used).
• Guest user - Can modify connections, however, the changes are lost at log-off or
restart.
• Low-privileged user - Cannot create or edit connections, but can view connection
definitions.
• Sign-off - To sign-off from the thin client, click Sign-off.
• Delete - To delete a connection, select a connection from the list and click Delete.
About Configuring ICA and RDP Connections
To open the Connection Settings dialog box for a connection, select the connection you
want from the list of available connections in the Connect Manger and click Settings (to
add new connections, click New in the Connect Manager).
For information on configuring ICA connections, refer to "Configuring ICA Connections."
For information on configuring RDP connections, refer to "Configuring RDP Connections."
Use the following information when configuring connections (this information assumes
that the thin client does not have a locked down privilege level):
• High-Privileged User - The additional functionality provided by the Connection
Settings dialog box allows testing of connection definitions before they are entered (by
the network administrator) into the user profile files.
• Low-Privileged User - The settings for the selected connection can be viewed but
cannot be edited, and new connections cannot be defined. Connection definitions are
controlled by the network administrator and are accessed by the thin client from the
user profiles located on a remote server.
• Guest - Only connections defined in the Global profile can be viewed.
• Stand-alone User - The Connect Manager is available to Stand-alone users because
connection definitions cannot be accessed from remote user profiles. If user profiles
are available on an FTP server but are not accessed because DHCP is not available or
is not configured to provide the file server IP address, the file server IP location can be
entered manually using the Network Setup dialog box.
