dialog box by selecting it from the desktop menu. This dialog box also can be set to open automatically on system start-up. For information on the PPPoE Manager dialog box, refer to "Configuring PPPoE Access."

Dialup Modem - If both the Dialup Manager and the Connect Manager open automatically when the thin client is turned on or restarted, the thin client is configured to access the network through a modem dial-up. A sign-on dialog box may appear when the network connection is accomplished. DHCP cannot automatically connect your thin client to User profiles when using dial-up access; the location of the FTP server where the profiles reside must be entered in the Network Setup dialog box. For information on the Dialup Manager dialog box, refer to "Configuring Dialup Modem Access." For information on the Connect Manager, refer to "Using the Connect Manager." For information on the Network Setup dialog box, refer to "Configuring Network Settings."

PPTP VPN - The PPTP Manager dialog box can be configured to open automatically when the thin client is turned on or restarted. This facilitates connection to an enterprise network through an ISP, the Internet, and a virtual private network (VPN) PPTP server. If dial-up is used to contact the ISP providing access to the Internet, the Dialup Manager and Connect Manager also open. DHCP cannot automatically connect your thin client to User profiles when using PPTP VPN access; the location of the FTP server where the profiles reside must be entered in the Network Setup dialog box. For information on the PPTP Manager dialog box, refer to "Configuring PPTP VPN Access." For information on the Dialup Manager dialog box, refer to "Configuring Dialup Modem Access." For information on the Connect Manager, refer to "Using the Connect Manager." For information on the Network Setup dialog box, refer to "Configuring Network Settings."

Note

If the Network Setup dialog box initially appears, or the Connect Manager is active when the thin client is started (or when the enterprise intranet is accessed), network services are not fully configured. In this case sign-on is not required and thin client network settings (and possibly connection definitions) must be entered locally on the thin client (for example, a Stand-alone user). For more information, refer to “Using the Connect Manager” and "Configuring Network Settings."

If the network to which the thin client is connected does not provide FTP services, a User profile will not be available and network addresses and connection definitions must be entered locally on the thin client. If User profiles (and update services) are available from an FTP server but DHCP does not supply the location of the FTP server, you can access the profiles by entering the location of the FTP server locally on the thin client (refer to “Configuring Network Settings” for more details).
