Connection between a Local Computer and a Remote Computer is permitted only if the primary user allows the
connection. A question dialog, stating the domain and user name of the local user attempting a connection, is
displayed on the Remote Computer desktop when a local user attempts to connect (see Figure 5-17). All currently-
connected local users will also see this dialog because they are currently viewing the Remote Computer desktop.

The different cases for establishing a collaborative session are:
If no one is logged into the Remote Computer desktop (in other words, there is no primary user), all
•
authenticated users are connected, and can view the Windows login desktop. However, when any one user
logs into the Remote Computer desktop (and, therefore, becomes the primary user), all other authenticated
users (who are viewing the Windows login desktop) will be disconnected as a security precaution.
If the primary user authorizes a connection from a local user, the new user connects to the Remote Computer
•
and can view its desktop.
If the primary user does not allow the connection, the new user will be unable to connect.
•
On Windows, if the primary user disconnects, the desktop is locked, but the Receivers will remain
•
connected.
On Linux, if the primary user disconnects, the desktop is locked, and all users are disconnected.
•
If the local user connecting to the primary user's computer is the same user as the primary user, the
•
collaboration dialog is not displayed, and the connection is allowed.
On Windows, the Sender desktop icon in the system application tray displays the status of connections. The icon
animates when Receivers are connected. On Linux, the Sender GUI is present on the desktop and displays
connection status.
All Receivers can be easily disconnected from the HP Remote Graphics icon located in the system tray or from the
Sender GUI by right-clicking on the icon or GUI. This is useful when hosting collaborative session, such as in a
classroom environment, and the session ends.

5-5-2 Collaboration notification dialog

The Windows Sender displays a collaboration notification dialog when non-primary users are connected. This
Sender-created dialog appears in each Remote Display Window that is connected to the Sender. The dialog
displays a list of domain\usernames for each user connected to the Remote Computer (see Figure 5-18).
Figure 5-18 Collaboration notification dialog displayed on the Sender and in each Remote Display Window
When the collaboration notification dialog is displayed, it indicates there are multiple connections to the Remote
Computer desktop. Primary and non-primary users are identified using different fonts in the notification dialog. The
primary user is italicized and listed first. Non-primary usernames follow, and are displayed using a normal font.
Figure 5-18 shows three active connections, one a primary user and the other two non-primary users. A small
button with an "X" is displayed next to all non-primary usernames. Pressing this button disconnects the
corresponding non-primary user.
