ezConnect - The NeoLinux Connection Manager
46 Appliance properties
This dialog allows the System Administrator to selectively set
specific security options to limit a user's ability to make thin cli-
ent setting changes. These security options include:
Set/Change Password (button)
•
Click here to set or change the configuration password for the
thin client.
Require password to access ezConnect - Select this check-
•
box if requiring that the user type in the password to access the
ezConnect connection manager is critical. This option is useful
for thin client configurations where the end user is only to
have access to a specific autostarted connection. One example
of such a configuration would be an thin client running a
Netscape connection in Kiosk mode, set to autostart on appli-
ance startup.
Timeout - Set the amount of time to allow the user to enter the
password to access ezConnect. After the timeout is reached,
the display automatically returns to the autostarted connection.
Allow connections to be created or modified - Select this
•
checkbox to allow the user to create and configure connections
in ezConnect on the thin client. Compare this secured version
of the ezConnect Connection Manager interface to the unse-
cured version on page 41.
Allow remote X Window application to connect - Select this
•
checkbox to allow X window applications running on a remote
server to access your thin client. This does not affect X win-
The Add, Edit,
Delete, and Copy
buttons are
removed when
ezConnect is
secured
