Using Remote Graphics Software

Controlling Settings on Linux and HP-UX

Sender GUI

By default, the Sender GUI automatically starts on Linux and HP-UX when the Sender process starts. The Sender GUI displays with the HP Remote Graphics Software icon on the desktop. By right clicking on the icon, the user can select one of the following options:

"Remote Keyboard/Mouse --> Enable or Disable" - If "Disable" is selected, all non-primary(A user of a RGS connection that does not match the user logged into the desktop of the remote computer. If no one is logged into the desktop of the remote computer, then all connections are non- primary.) users are in "view-only" mode. Only the primary user, the user that is logged into the desktop, will control the remote desktop remotely using the Receiver. If "Enable" is selected, all users connected to the Sender can interact with the remote desktop. All keyboard and mouse activity will be injected into the Sender allowing non-primary users control of the remote desktop.

"Disconnect --> Non-primary Users or All Users" – disconnects receiver sessions for either non-primary users or all users.

"Help" displays the Remote Graphics Help system.

"About" displays Remote Graphics program information.

It is possible to disable the GUI from automatically starting. See Installing the Sender for more details.
