Signing-on

After a connection to the enterprise intranet is established, sign-on to the network and/or session services may or may not be required (depending on a Global profile option set by the network administrator, the session servers, or any requirements of PNAgent/PNLite services). If sign-on to the enterprise intranet is required, a sign-on dialog box opens when you turn on the thin client, when you restart the thin client, or after signing off from a User profile account.

Note

In a Virtual Desktop environment, user authentication is made against the

Virtual Desktop Broker. Therefore, you will only authenticate against the

Broker. You will sign-on as described in this section only when a Virtual

Desktop environment is not used or is unavailable.

Sign-on name and password are assigned initially by the administrator when the account is established, but the password can be changed by the user at a thin client in some cases (see "Changing Your Password"). To sign on to a standard account, enter the user name for the account and password allocated to you by the network administrator. Account user names are not case sensitive, however, passwords are case sensitive.

Note

If you cannot successfully sign-on, ask your network administrator for help.

If a user account is not established but PNAgent/PNLite-published applications are to be accessed on the PNAgent/PNLite server, you must enter the user name for the account and password (in this case, account user names are not case sensitive, but passwords are case sensitive) and also select a Domain in which the applications appears (if the correct domain does not appear in the list, type it into the Domain box).

Note

Applications can be published to the network by PNAgent/PNLite services. These applications are available to the thin clients on the network as long as accounts are established on the PNAgent/PNLite server. If User profiles are used, the thin client will send the enterprise server sign-on and domain information to the PNAgent/PNLite server for log-on. If User profiles are not used (a sign-on is not required to access User profiles) but a PNAgent/ PNLite server address is entered into the Network Setup dialog box, the sign-on dialog box with the PNAgent/PNLite Domain box will still be presented to you for access to the published applications. PNAgent/ PNLite-published applications will be merged with connections defined through user profiles and local settings for a combined total number of connections. The maximum number of connections has a default limit of 216, but can be set from 100 to 1000 through wnos.ini.

Changing Your Password

If you are required to sign on and you are not using PNAgent/PNLite services or a Virtual Desktop environment, you can change your assigned password by selecting Check here to change password in the sign-on dialog box and using the change password dialog box (type the new password in both the New Password and Confirm boxes, and click OK).
