Macintosh serial ports do not provide all the control signal lines that are used by Windows applications. The DSR (Data Set Ready), DCD (Device Carrier Detect), RI (Ring Indicator), and RTS (Request To Send) lines are not provided. Windows applications that rely on these signals for hardware handshaking and flow control may not work. The Macintosh implementation of serial communications relies on CTS (Clear To Send) and DTR (Data Terminal Ready) lines for input and output hardware handshaking only.

To map a client COM port

1.Do one of the following:

From the ICA Client Editor Options menu, choose Default Settings.

Click Default Settings in the ICA Client Editor.

2.Choose Drives and Devices > COM Port Mapping.

3.Choose the COM port you want to configure.

This is a virtual client COM port that is displayed in the ICA session. It does not refer to a physical port on the local machine.

4.Click Modify to display the Select Serial Port dialog box.

5.Choose the physical port to associate with the selected COM port and click Select.

6.Repeat steps 3 through 5 to map other ports as necessary and then click Save to save the new settings.

7.Start the client and log on to a server.

8.To start a command prompt, click Start > Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt.

9.At the prompt, type

net use comx: \\client\comz:

where x is the number of the COM port on the server (ports 1 through 9 are available for mapping) and z is the number of the client COM port (ports 1 through 4 are available).

10.To confirm the mapping, type net use at the prompt. A list displays mapped drives, LPT ports, and mapped COM ports.

You can now use this mapped COM port as you would a COM port on the client.

Mapping Client Audio

Client audio mapping lets applications running on the server play sounds through the client device.
