Note: Your local keyboard changes its keyboard layout according to the remote host system. If you use a German administration system and your host system uses a US English keyboard layout for instance, some special keys on the German keyboard will not work as expected. Instead, the keys will result in their US English counterpart. You can circumvent such problems by adjusting the keyboard of your remote system to the same mapping as your local one.
The Remote Console window always tries to show the remote screen with its optimal size. That means it will adapt its size to the size of the remote screen initially and after the screen resolution of the remote screen has been changed. However, you can always resize the Remote Console window in your local window system as usual.
Remote Console Control Bar
The upper part of the Remote Console window contains a control bar. Using its elements you can see the state of the Remote Console and influence the local Remote Console settings. A description for each control follows.
Ctrl+Alt+Delete
Sends the ‘Control Alt Delete’ key combination to the remote system
Auto Adjust button
If the video display is poor quality or distorted in some way, click this button and wait a few seconds while the
Sync mouse
Activates the mouse synchronization process. Choose this option in order to synchronize the local AND remote mouse cursors. This is especially necessary when using accelerated mouse settings on the host system. In general, there is no need to change mouse settings on the host.
Single/Double mouse mode
Switches between the Single Mouse Mode (where only the remote mouse pointer is visible) and the Double Mouse Mode (where remote and local mouse pointers are visible) Single mouse mode is only available if using SUN JVM 1.3 or higher.
Tip: When in single mouse mode use the hotkey combination [ALT] + [F12] to release mouse control and access the menus etc.
