Does the Secure Desktop Manager support Japanese character encodings?

The Secure Desktop Manager supports encoding such as the Shift_JIS, provided that you configure
support for it using ASDM (Configuration > VPN > WebVPN > Encoding) or the remote user configures
encoding using the browser (View > Encoding or View > Character Encoding).

local desktop handles it. Transparent handling works for the following e-mail applications:

Timeout Questions
The following questions address timeout settings with the Secure Desktop and the Cache Cleaner:

How does the timeout setting work on the Secure Desktop?

The timeout setting is independent of the desktop on which the user is operating. If you set a timeout of
1 minute and the remote user switches to the Local Desktop and works there beyond the 1-minute setting,
the Secure Desktop closes at the end of the minute. Depending upon other settings, CSD saves the data
to a Vault or erases it from the disk. Also, CSD uninstalls the Secure Desktop software if you configure
it to do so.

Do Macintosh and Linux have a timeout setting?

Yes, you can set a time-out for the Macintosh & Linux Cache Cleaner.
