(enablelocal=yes), locally-defined connection definitions can be saved in these cases.

Stand-alone user - Locally-defined connections are retained when the thin client restarts or is shut down (there is no individual log-on). Network configuration settings must be made locally.

Settings - Clicking Settings opens the Connection Settings dialog box for the selected connection (for more information on the Connection Settings dialog box, refer to "About Configuring ICA and RDP Connections"). Be aware of the following information:

High-privileged user - Can view and edit the definitions for the currently-selected connection. Edits are not permanently retained when the user signs-off.

Stand-alone user - Can permanently modify the persistent connections (except when PNAgent/PNLite services are used).

Guest user - Can modify connections, however, the changes are lost at log-off or restart.

Low-privileged user - Cannot create or edit connections, but can view connection definitions.

Sign-off- To sign-off from the thin client, click Sign-off.

Delete - To delete a connection, select a connection from the list and click Delete.

About Configuring ICA and RDP Connections

To open the Connection Settings dialog box for a connection, select the connection you want from the list of available connections in the Connect Manger and click Settings (to add new connections, click New in the Connect Manager).

For information on configuring ICA connections, refer to "Configuring ICA Connections."

For information on configuring RDP connections, refer to "Configuring RDP Connections."

Use the following information when configuring connections (this information assumes that the thin client does not have a locked down privilege level):

High-Privileged User - The additional functionality provided by the Connection Settings dialog box allows testing of connection definitions before they are entered (by the network administrator) into the user profile files.

Low-Privileged User - The settings for the selected connection can be viewed but cannot be edited, and new connections cannot be defined. Connection definitions are controlled by the network administrator and are accessed by the thin client from the user profiles located on a remote server.

Guest - Only connections defined in the Global profile can be viewed.

Stand-alone User - The Connect Manager is available to Stand-alone users because connection definitions cannot be accessed from remote user profiles. If user profiles are available on an FTP server but are not accessed because DHCP is not available or is not configured to provide the file server IP address, the file server IP location can be entered manually using the Network Setup dialog box.
