Multi-monitor configurations
NOTE: Advanced Video Compression is not supported on multi-monitor configurations.
Many computers have a frame buffer that is larger in size (as measured in horizontal pixels by vertical pixels)
than what can be displayed on a single monitor. During an RGS connection, the remote computer transmits
its entire frame buffer.
For the local user to view the complete desktop of the remote computer, the local computer must have a
comparably-sized frame buffer, which will typically require two monitors to view (see the image below).
Multiple monitors on the local computer are also useful for a many-to-one connection. If the local computer
is connected to two remote computers, each remote computer frame buffer can be displayed on its own
monitor if the local computer has two monitors (see the image below).
RGS login methods
RGS provides three methods for the local user to log in to a remote computer:
●
Standard Login—supported for the Windows and Linux versions of the RGS Sender.
●
Easy Login—supported for the Windows and Linux versions of the RGS Sender.
●
Single Sign-on—supported for the Windows version of the RGS Sender.
On Windows, the login method is selected during installation of the RGS Sender and can be changed later
using the RGS Admin Tool (see
Using the RGS Admin Tool (Windows only) on page 42).
On Linux, Easy Login can be enabled during installation and disable using an RGS Sender property (see
Manually disabling Easy Login on Linux on page 21).
Standard Login
Standard Login is the process by which a local user attempts to connect to a remote computer that has
neither Single Sign-on nor Easy Login enabled.
