Individual thin client appliances can be configured at the desktop
when installed or whenever network resources change. This configu-
ration usually includes initially defining to which servers, applica-
tions, and Web sites the thin client user may have access. While this

initially configuring or changing the connection configurations on
more than a few thin client devices can consume a lot of administra-
tor resources.
