If you are unsure about a setting, ask your SGD Administrator for help.

Setting

Description

 

 

Login URL

The SGD Uniform Resource Locator (URL) to use for the profile. This is

 

usually http://server.example.com/sgd, where server.example.com is the name

 

of an SGD server.

 

If you use a browser to display the SGD webtop, the URL is loaded

 

automatically in your default browser so that you can log in and access your

 

webtop.

 

In Integrated mode, the URL is only loaded in your default browser if you

 

need to log in to SGD.

 

The default Login URL is http://server.example.com/sgd/index.jsp.

Connect on System Login

If enabled, the SGD Client is started automatically with this profile whenever

 

you log in to your computer.

 

If enabled, the SGD Client creates an application shortcut or symbolic link for

 

itself in the startup folder of your desktop system.

 

This is disabled by default.

Add Applications to Start Menu

Controls how you use SGD.

 

If enabled, the applications you can run are displayed in the desktop Start or

 

Launch Menu on your computer. This is called Integrated mode.

 

If disabled, the applications you can run are displayed on a webtop in a

 

browser.

 

With Integrated mode, you cannot suspend and resume individual

 

applications or pause and resume individual print jobs.

 

This is disabled by default.

Automatic Client Login

If enabled, as soon as the SGD Client starts, it attempts to log you in

 

automatically to SGD. Your Administrator can tell you whether automatic

 

logins are being used.

 

You can only enable this option if the Add Applications to Start Menu setting

 

is enabled.

 

This is disabled by default.

Alternative PDF Viewer

The application command for an alternative Portable Document Format (PDF)

 

viewer to use with PDF printing.

 

If the application is not on your PATH, type the full path to the application.

 

This setting only applies to UNIX, Linux, and Mac OS X platform computers.

Logging

Controls the amount of information that is output to the SGD Client log file.

 

The output is logged to a text file in the same directory as the SGD Client.

 

The default is Errors only.

Preferred Language

The default language to use when the SGD Client is started from the

 

command line. For example, when the SGD Client is in Integrated mode.

 

The language selected is used for messages displayed by the SGD Client, the

 

login dialog, and the webtop.

 

The default is English.
