Support service - Altiris Deployment Solution

The Altiris Deployment Solution™ support service is available for your thin client network. This service provides an easy-to-use, integrated tool that allows remote management of thin clients throughout their life cycle, including initial deployment, ongoing management, and software deployment.

You must install the Altiris Deployment Solution on a Windows NT

4.0or Windows 2000/2003 Server, or a workstation capable of logging on as administrator to a domain that provides specified network services which can access a software repository for your thin client. The Altiris Deployment Solutions software uses a Preboot Execution Environment (PXE) session and protocol to reimage or recover your thin client. PXE upgrade services are built into the Altiris Deployment Solution.

For additional information about the Altiris Deployment Solution, refer to the Altiris Web site at: www.altiris.com/documentation and

review the Altiris Deployment Solution User Guide.

Extended Windows XPe features

The operating system of the Microsoft Windows XPe-based thin client has extended features not found in the standard Microsoft Windows XP operating system. Controls for extended Windows XPe features are only available through the Administrator logon account with the exception of the following:

■Microsoft Terminal Server Client (Remote Desktop Connection Manager)

■Citrix Program Neighborhood

■If installed, a special-order terminal emulation application

ÄCAUTION: A write filter is used by the thin client for security and to prevent excessive flash write activity. Changes to the thin client configuration are lost when the thin client is restarted unless the write filter cache is disabled or a -commitcommand is issued during the current boot session. See the write filter topics in “Enhanced Write Filter Manager” on page 26 for instructions to disable the cache. Enable the write filter when you no longer want permanent changes.
