Using Roaming Profiles

You can participate in domains by writing roaming profiles to the C drive. The profiles must be limited in size and will not be retained when the thin client is restarted.

Note

For successful downloading and proper functioning, there must be sufficient flash space available for roaming profiles. In some cases it may be necessary to remove software components to free space for roaming profiles.

Using the WinPing Diagnostic Utility

WinPing is used to launch the Windows PING (Packet InterNet Groper) diagnostic utility and view the results from pinging. To open the WinPing window, click Start Run, enter WinPing in the text box, and click OK.

Figure 34 WinPing

WinPing is a diagnostic tool that sends an echo request to a network host. The host parameter is either a valid host name or an IP address. If the host is operational and on the network, it responds to the echo request. The default is to send 5 echo requests and then stop if no response is detected. WinPing sends one echo request per second, calculates round trip times and packet loss statistics, and displays a brief summary upon completion.

WinPing is used to:

•Determine the status of the network and various hosts.

•Track and isolate hardware and software problems.

•Test, measure, and manage networks.

•Determine the IP address of a host if only the host name is known.

Using the Net and Tracert Utilities

Net and Tracert utilities are available for administrative use (for example, to determine the route taken by packets across an IP network). For more information on these utilities, go to: http://www.microsoft.com.
